Default Re: Musa itinerans var. itinerans

This is one cold hardy Musa. The petiole is strongly winged, and this plant took many hours of below freezing temperatues this winter, down to 29F (approx -2C) with no damage. Most of the other cultivars on the site had extensive damage.





This is a wild species Musa that is worth growing!!
