I think the sugar banana or lady's finger is a mit more towards the hardy 
end. I know it grows well in Sydney Australia, but not sure how it would go 
in frost. It usually fruits the second year I think, so if it kep dying off 
that wouldn't be much good.

  Speaking of banannas...

Anyone have any insight into varieites of banannas that are more hardy? The
zone I live in fluctuates between zone 7- 9. I don't mind doing some work
to protect from cold, but am looking for as cold hardy a variety as possible
just in case (you know how you don't always get around to all those chores
you hope to?).

Sincerely,

Marjory
