That makes sense. It still amazes me what you can do to a banana plant and it still survive and thrive.

I think I will in general, not have a permanent mat. I will pull a large pup and replant in a new location then rejuvenate the old planting mat after fruiting.

I keep thinking too that I want to go all dwarfs for ease of freeze protection.

Thanks everyone. I learned a lot from the replies.
