| have a read of the banana forum - the americans plant in half wine barrels and roll them under cover on frosty nights or into the house or greenhouse during the winter. most melbourne winter days will be warm enough to keep them alive. My sister inlaw has planted a couple of lady fingers this year. there are a lot of cool climate bananas - mostly seeded or cooking bananas, but they're worth a go if you don't get frosts. -3C would mean you need a himalayan or similar banana - read the banana forum or goolge for low temp bananas or buy a pup and give it a go.... |
