Put them out in light shade for now. The greenhouse wouldn't hurt and may excel their growth somewhat. My musa basjoo clump that's 5 years old already has pseudostems of 3 feet high. They are growing nicely now even though the temps have been cool the last few days. Also check out musa velutina. My clump is of one year is already coming up. It's a very cold hardy banana that's great for Arkansas.
