    I would plant the banana in the ground along a fence that gets reflected heat and protection from the wind. Let the pups grow and try to keep five or so bananas growing together all the time. Keep it mulched well fed, and watered. Banana pups are easy to transplant when new ones grow. I live inland from San Diego and have over 100 banana plants and get fruit throughout the year. Once the banana fruits, which takes about 10 months or a little more, chop it down, split the trunk in half and lay it split side down in the soil. That helps mulch your plants too. If you do this you will always have banana plants on hand.

    Bananas are grown in circles of 3... once the grampa produces it gets cut down and the papa is next, the son grows and then another pup takes the place of the grampa.... 3 generations. I've been growing dwarf cavendish and ice cream bananas in 4 different circles now for 6 yrs.... it's a grass and grows from a rhysome.

Not to mention the length of season: We have winter, light summer, hard summer, light summer again, then winter. The lack of pests: I love growing zucchini more than anything else and the SVB come at me with a vengeance, which I've never had to deal with in East County.

    Hey guys! I love watching you guys all the time, I think you're all wonderful and hilarious, but today you made me very sad when you cut out those "extra" banana shoots LOL.
    I'm in Florida where we grow bananas everywhere. You can grow them in your climate too, but it is important to understand how they grow in order to get great success, and the very first thing to understand is that a banana tree plant does not like to stand alone, especially in windy climates like yours.
    Banana plants grow from a central corm (rhizome). The first shoot the corm sends up would be called the parent plant, it will grow taller than the rest and send out a flower shoot to create the little golden nuggets of creaminess we all love. After it produces fruit, that parent plant naturally dies back (you should leave the debris in the grove to provide the necessary nutrients) and then its offspring (the smaller shoots you just cut out) will shoot up from the corm to take its place and produce your next harvest. This natural growth pattern naturally creates the small grove environment they need to thrive. It's important for them to grow this way because they need the shelter of one another as protection against wind and harsh sun, and it also allows them to make the most out of the available nutrients. This also helps them to create the humidity they need in order to thrive. Growing banana plants together in small clumps helps to protect them against extremes of heat and cold, periods of drought, and excessive exposure. This is essential in keeping them healthy and happy.
    If you want a banana grove, plant them in the corner behind your big water tank, give them plenty of organic matter and mulch, plus consistent moisture, and then just leave them alone!!! No hacky hacky trimmy trimmy!
    ~Much Love!

    And so the tale continues of the rebellious citrus offshoots. The plan was clear - infiltrate the garden by disguising oneself as one of the "Desirables". The message was sent to all the neighboring rootstocks through the mycelium underground network. "Anyone brave enough to stand with us, answer the call!" In the moment of truth only two stood tall. For weeks, for months, they learned from their predecessor and started underneath the soil and hid in plain sight by pressing up against a Desirable. They grew and grew, reaching as tall as a Desirable and putting on growth to increase their strength. The other rootstocks too cowardly to stand with them looked on in awe of the Brave Ones. "Maybe the Epic Guardians, the Dragon King and Mighty Hermit, have been defeated!" They all cheered. But at last, the rebels' clever trick was soon discovered. The eyes of the Dragon King and Might Hermit were sharp this day and down the Brave Ones went. The other rootstocks mourned but were not disheartened for the Brave Ones left a final message before their demise. "The path is opened and we will not be denied! Go forth and be free!" Will the Epic Guardians be able to repel the rebellion? Stay tuned until the next Epic: Citrus Prune Saga.
