Any thoughts on my zone 8b, In ground, banana winter protection.
Right now my plan is to build an insulation tube to slide over my banana plant. Here is a link to the product I am looking at at Lowes.
Shop Insulfoam 1" x 4' x 2' R-3.85 Insulated Sheathing at Lowes.com

I think I want to build the tubes by taking two of these, cut in half lengthwise then glued to make a tube about 1 foot sq and 4 feet long. I figure I could then add them in 4 foot sections. A string of Christmas lights go inside of that.
