Re: "Ice cream" banana cold hardy?
So far my Ice Cream, in the ground, heavily mulched with horse compost, with nothing more than fried leaves folded down, and a lawn-n-leaf bag on it, (with no other protection) is still green and standing tall. If it's still alive, I won't know 'til spring.
I also have Cardaba, Cheesmanii, Mysore, Goldfinger, Manzano, Dwarf Orinoco, CA Gold, and Zebrina all standing tall and green, except for CA Gold and zebrina, which are standing short and green.
Last year was much worse with alot more nights below 32 degrees...in a row...
