Brandy,

Well you really have two options. 1.) Keep them potted and on the dry side while giving them as much light as possible. Try to keep them in a cool room. Your goal is to make them go semi-dormant-no growth. The yellowing you're seeing is normal for bananas this time of year; especially on one's brought inside. It is a response to the lower light conditions. 2.) You could unpot them, knock all the soil from the roots and store them in a cool, unlighted area and hope for the best. Some memebers here do this under their house each year, but I think it's hit or miss if they survive. Do some research in the cold hardy forum and you'll find a lot of info. Personally, I'd go with option #1 if it were me. Good luck!
