A little basic info--this banana grows to about 10 ft (trunk height) before blooming. The corm always makes it thru our winters (lowest temp here since I had it was 7F), the first one that bloomed (first picture here made it thru this past winter (mid 20s --no protection) with no leaves, but I did not have to cut it back before it started to grow a new leaf. The other one was protected by wrapping the trunk with landscape cloth.

Leaves and trunk are all green.
