Im glad they came back.

[@justhereforthefoliage]

Yes, me too! Doing great now! Thanks! Do you have any planted? If so, did they come back for you?

[@cincytropics]

Sabal minor is tough! More people should plant them here in Cincinnati

[@justhereforthefoliage]

Yes, totally agreed. Real slow grower though!

[@Yellowbellytropics]

I love the new border

[@justhereforthefoliage]

Thank you very much!

[@tntropics]

Looking good. Did you lose all canna?

[@justhereforthefoliage]

Thanks! Yes, none have come back in this location and no pink China elephant ears have come back either. Didn’t protect either of those and sprayed Round Up once the Musa were up out of the ground.

Did you winterize your banana plants?

[@justhereforthefoliage]

No, I did not. Sorry, I should have mentioned that. I did absolutely nothing to them. I cut them down after first hard freeze in the Fall then I walked away from them and did nothing. This is all on their own. I plan to not fertilize or water this summer so they’ll be completely on their own.

[@zekeharley]

do you trim your banana leaves at all during the summer or just let them grow?

[@justhereforthefoliage]

Very rarely do I trim off anything, but every once in a while I do take off some particularly bad looking ones. Thanks!
