I have kept my nanas in the house for the winter.
The one that eventually bloomed and had fruit was one I had started from seed . It took 3 years for it to bloom and as it turns out was not the nana that it should have been, but I love it anyhow
When I first started it the winters were spent in my upstairs bathroom, there are skylights in there......I still keep many of my smaller nanas up there for the winter instead of the GH.
When mine bloomed it was late in the summer, I put it in the GH, hoping the fruit would continue to grow. It really didn't do too much....but by spring, the fruit had ripened....and tasted good...but tiny...luckily it had pupped so when the mama died I had 2 more.
I have just split them up and have the one in the bathroom for the winter
The other is heading for Susies house as soon as I find a box.....
