I have tried several times and even storing the large corms under the house with NO luck!!! I am borderline 7a/b, in SE TN. The only way I can have them is to overwinter either inside or in friends heated greenhouse. Moisture does them in for me at least during the winter. All I can tell you is if you are willing to try it, be sure to save a pup so you will have a "back up".... I honestly would not hold out much hope, but that is for me in my climate...
Good luck in whatever you do!!! They are beautiful bananas...
