There is a guy down the street who grows and sells banana plants. In the spring he fills his front yard with them, it's an impressive tropical display all summer, and then around now he yanks em all up and wraps them and keeps them in the basement. Too much up and down and schlepping for us. I'm bringing one big pot of elephant ears in the house and the rest of the bulbs will winter in the garage with the cana. We switched from burlap to Wilt-Pruf a number of years ago. It's pretty fantastic stuff. Great for frostproofing, winter protection, even extends the life of Christmas trees. Our basement has several sproutings of Bird of Paradise -- all plastic!
