Default Re: "Ice cream" banana cold hardy?

After the first winter - plant in ground 12 months - where temps occasionally hit 25F I had a bloom May 1st. The following winter - by records not one bit colder - they died slap to the ground. Go figure! But the same thing happened to four other varieties, the only exception being the dwarf Orinoco.
