You can plant a banana tree in the Northern States that will produce tasty bananas and add a tropical landscape to your pool or garden. The idea of a Northern planting of cold hardy banana plants is exciting to a gardener from a State that is North of Florida, Louisiana or Texas. Banana trees have been proven to survive the cold frigid winters of below zero temperatures. A very large banana plant can grow up to 17 feet in a single season with most of the banana growth occurring between June and September.
