Thank you very much Wayne. I recently made an order and am on pins and needles hoping that these folks are honest. Your email is a great endorsement for this company and I for one appreciate it.

Thanks again

Good luck with your's I've lost 3 pups and 1 big plant this winter. The remaining plant is all but dead but does have a glimpse of green growth down around the roots. I pulled it and placed in in our greenhouse with a soil heater to see if I can inspire it to hang on. I'm just sick with what's happened and will be ordering some soon

Gotcha. Thanks..
Since we are past the worry of freezing now, how soon can I put them in the ground and what else would be required?

We are dipping to maybe 40 at the lowest now and get up to the mid 50s during the day. I would like to get them in the ground as soon as I can so they have the best start.

Thanks again......John

Hi folks.
Last year we purchased a couple of bananas (Banjoo Musa (sp)) from the local nursery. Wow, did they grow awesome. They were just beautiful. They even had a couple of pups show up late in each pot.
At the start of winter I put them in our unheated greenhouse to let them stay warm and then we got an unusual cold spell of about 20 degrees for a week or so and they died off.
I panicked and cut them back but I can't tell if I did something wrong. We are past the cold and at the harshest we are dipping into the low 40's at night.
The stalk is dark green/black and where I cut them a small yellow stem about the size of my finger is extending up out of the rest of the stalk about 3".

What have I done and what do I need to do to save my plants Help.....
