Re: The correct hardiness of Musa basjoo
Hello fellow ardent admirers of Musa!
The hardy Musa basjoo that I planted in my garden in Port Moody, BC has tolerated 2 months of wretchedly hard freezes as low as minus 17 celsius!
Die back this year was right to the ground, and I even protected them....
The tips began to break the surface soil last week... much to my relief!
My neighbour had a string of bananas last fall... but they never ripen in our cool maritime climate...
I look forward to the new to me site!
Happy Days to all!
Roger
