Whats a good dwarf fruiter with pstem surviving 20ish temps?
I am going to try to grow a dwarf variety in my unheated greenhouse this winter planted in the floor or in a pot with the pstem exposed to the air. Last winter it did not get below 20/25 ish in there so was about a zone 9, and by covering plant pots with 2 layers of frost cloth, I lost nothing that was below the cloth. Basically what is the variety that has the most cold tolerant pstem that will fruit? I know the leaves will be lost but just need something with a pstem that has high cold tolerance. Lots of bananas seem to be able to take zone 9a temps and live, but is that with the pstem intact, or do they die back to the ground?
