Default Re: My bananas are zapped!

Do what Engleman and sbl say to do. Personally, I don't like the way the dead hanging leaves look - but they do give the pstem some protection. I'll probably just cut mine off and risk it. That's what I did last year and everything was fine. The only pstem damage I had last year was to ornata and Siam Ruby, but those are skinny anyway and they recovered quickly when warm weather arrived.
