I really don't mind digging out a few plants since they are so easy to split as long as there are pups on the side.

What kind of bananas, or other tropical plants do you have?

Here's the thread where I documented growing them.

Yes i feel for ya bitter cold 50F here tonight ...
I hear when you dig them up if you miss any roots they will regrow, so I would be happy with some nice root cuttings more than happy to pay postage..
I have Hua moa, Ice cream, D nam wah, Raja puri with pups ,HM is my best bet as it is fairly short cycle banana, Med height thin stalk should do ok in a big pot it doesnt pup much .

I grow Bromeliads, Brugmansia and Plumeria ...
Im in no hurry, let me know If anything interests you
