I really like this garbage bag method. My Bajoo died last winter. I had one left I brought in for winter. Right now I have an 11’6’ dome over my pond and banana tree. We had a night down to 31 F and it did not take any hit. I’m in Wisconsin so I know eventually it will. I think mine died last winter because I used tarps and rose styrofoam. It still got wet. Maybe 2 garbage bags with leaves will work!!! Super excited. Thanks.

@Lschraeder
@Lschraeder 5 лет назад
I live in Portland, Oregon which is zoned 8B. My winter care consists on leaving my stalks about 4+ feet high with all the leaves removed. I cover the area with 3-4 inches of mulch and wrap Cling Wrap around each and every stalk. The pups are transported to pots and brought indoors/garage. I start the process in early November. In March I remove the wrapping and add an additional 2-3 inches of blended mushroom compost and 4 way soil. My stalks are typically over 12' in height. This data pertains to the Basjoo variety exclusively.

@OhioJimbo
@OhioJimbo 3 года назад
It really depends on the harshness of your winter, the thickness of your mulch cover, and the timing of when you cover - and when you uncover. If you keep the core of the corm from a solid freeze, it should make it. I would say that you may have some pups survive, but maybe not the main stalk. Just OVER cover the corm.

We continue to move these around because each one produces a lot of pups! We have not seen one get as tall as these did. It seems the pups that get transplanted seem to grow larger than the original corm

I believe that it requires 14 months of uninterrupted growth for these to flower and produce fruit. So because of the Winterizing, I have NOT seen fruit on any of mine yet.

I live in Cincinnati and I usually just cut my banana trees flush to the ground and then put layers of grass clippings on top. I see a lot of people do this method and I tried it and unfortunately lost some beautiful trees. I will be making a video shortly but heck its almost 90° and it's October 7th at this time I'll keep enjoying the trees.

Leave them covered until danger of frost has gone. In Ohio, you can uncover temporarily (daylight) in April, but the frost date is May 15th.

I live in Pennsylvania and just received two banana plants. When do you recommend I plant them?
@OhioJimbo
@OhioJimbo 3 года назад
Put them in containers and keep them indoors (garage) and preferably near a window, until around May 15th. That is the general date for the last frost in central Pennsylvania. Typically, they will tend to grow rapidly upward toward light, and this can make the stalk very flimsy. If at all possible, put a fan on your plants for a couple of hours a day. It will strengthen their stalk and prepare them for natural winds that will occur once you plant them outside. Be sure to keep the soil moist, but not soaked. The fan has a tendency to dry out the soil.

Você precisa de 14 meses de crescimento constante para florescer. Você pode pote-los, levá-los dentro de casa para o crescimento de inverno e, em seguida, eles podem florescer. Os climas mais frios dificultam muito a floração. ENGLISH: You need 14 months of constant growth for them to flower. You can pot them, take them indoors for winter growth and then they may flower.

@bigdawg6157
@bigdawg6157 8 лет назад
I have tried many different ways to protect my bananas trees that I have seen on the internet . I have been told to cut to the ground , but I prefer for my tree to start from a taller position in the spring , instead of the ground level . I have tried leaves , I have tried straw, I have tried wrapping in plastic , but my trees always rot to the ground . because all of these hold the moisture in . I have tried pine bark mulch which is supposed to allow air so as not to hold the moisture , but still my banana tree rotted to the ground, now they did come back but then had to begin growing at ground level . I live in Northern Va . so maybe a tad warmer over the winter then where you live . So has your trees come back from the same level where you cut them off in the past from the way you have shown ?
@OhioJimbo
@OhioJimbo 8 лет назад
No.In spring I begin by cutting a little off at a time until I hit a "green" portion in the trunk. Often times it results in as much as a foot cut off before finding the green. Remember that the size of the krom will help accelerate the growth in spring.
@OhioJimbo
@OhioJimbo 7 лет назад
Either way, it is a HARD freeze to the krom. I have found that cutting it back gives more room for insulation. Just MY experience.
@markszelewa6623
@markszelewa6623 8 месяцев назад
I live in Central Pennsylvanian. I cut my trunks to 12 inches, lay heat coils at the base, use 2 foot high by 3 foot round chicken wire cages and fill with bark mulch every year. I only started using the heat tape after I lost all my banana trees to a streak of 3 below 0 days. I was told to uncover in March because they might rott from too much heat and moisture. The stalks are still green but I have to keep trying to protect them from frost with blankets. I will try keeping them covered till May 15th this year. Thanks, Mark

Yes, but it compacts and holds moisture by itself. Make sure that you have carbons (brown materials) mixed in. It is a wonderful compost come spring!
