| I recently divided and moved this plant.. |
 |
| North side of my house in shade zone 8b Louisiana, Southern U.S. |
It can take very little or almost no wind without getting broken up. It's blooming now in late October, looks best in shade, and blooms just fine with little sun.
I grew it next to a window inside my house the first winter after I bought it as a small 10'' tall division and the foliage was flawless, although it grew a little slow, it was steady. In the spring I planted it in my yard in 3 locations.
It has frozen to the ground all but last winter, which was far warmer than usual and all my bananas grew to absolute maturity. I have never seen this happen before and my place looked like a rain forest. I am wondering if I will ever see it again so lush.
