Thanks for the info. I guess we need to wait to see if any shoots come up or remove the trunk and replant. I a little disappointed because it was a beautiful big tree and was just hoping the tree would have lasted longer than that. But now I know. Thanks! :)

So what happens if the banana flowers but never fruits? I live in Northern California (Marin Co.) and we have a 3-4 year old banana tree which has been thriving until it recently grew an enormous flower. It started to flower in the Fall but nothing happened after months of waiting (and some frosty winter night) so we cut the flower back down to the base of its stalk a couple of months ago. the entire tree seemed to go dormant and wasn't growing new leaves so we thought that it was putting its energy into the flower. Now that the flower is gone, nothing is happening and we're wondering if the plant is going to survive? Does this mean we need to cut the trunk down and start over? I haven't seen any pups coming up either.
