Bob Knuerr I'm happy with the quality of the plant I received.

LindaH I have purchased hardy banana plants from Logees over the years. Currently, I have 2 large banana groves, that grow 15-20 feet from April - October. I live in SE Connecticut. In the Winter, we just cut them back nearly to the ground, and cover them with a thick layer of straw. Wish I could upload photos of what they look like here.

Emily I love these plants for their giant, tropical look! I've yet to successfully overwinter in the ground, but, last year I dug one up, put it in a giant plastic pot, and then into the basement. Occasionally watered, but mostly ignored. In the spring, it had one green leaf left, and I put it back into the ground. It has doubled in size this year--probably about 6'! I will be trying the same method again this winter.

Meghan in Zone 6 I have been working on a little wildlife pond/water catchment area because of how much water gets diverted into my yard. Since I live in a suburb I ought to make it look halfway decent so I've been looking for nice plants to shade the pond in hopes the water will remain throughout the summer without me having to refill it.
I received a beautiful musa from Logee's last year and planted it in a 15 gallon grow bag. I can't begin to describe how much this plant grew in one season. It's impressive, to say the least. I can't wait to plant it into the ground this year.
I will say that you would be doing it a favor if you plant it in an area that is somewhat protected from wind. My property is really prone to hurricane-force winds because of how the neighborhood is set up. The musa did just fine with the wind but the leaves can get a little shredded during particularly bad storms.

Dawn This grew beautifully in my MN garden last year and I want more. Thank you Logees
