Default Re: Species in zone 7?

Musa basjoo can grow in a zone 7 with little protection and as Musella and musa velutina can survive a zone 7 with protection. Musa velutina is suppose to grow very easily from seed.
Im not sure if these bananas will do well in a sweden zone 7 since your winters are longer and colder than a zone 7 in the eastern USA, but if you have any doubts, you can easily dig them up, pot them up, bring them inside, and plant them in the ground again the next summer!
