You can't beat 75% off. So even though I know nothing about bananas (other than eating them of course) I had to bring this guy home with me. There was no tag on it but I was told it was a Cavendish?

But now that I've got it what do I do with it? It looks pretty root bound (see 2nd picture) so I'm going to go ahead and repot it, but what else should I know? I've seen several posts about removing pups, is that something I want to do here? I know I can google for information, but nothing beats having some first-hand advice from people who care for these every day. I've perused some of the threads here in advance, but I sure would appreciate any input from you guys...in regards to overwintering as well.

Thanks so much,
