These bananas were left in the ground because they were too large for me to dig/move. As you will note from the photo, the stem is still very solid. This is April the 7th, and I do hope that we do not have any more late freezes.
Do the banana stems look to you like they made it ok? I do not know the name of the cultivar. I hope someone could make a good guess for me. I know it is a plaintain type.

Please see my gallery. thank you.
