18 months ago Laaz sent me a Ice Cream banana pup. It is in a large pot and on 8/18 it put out a flower. We typically don't get a frost until sometime in Nov. Is there anything I can do to be able to get ripe fruit?
The first photo is before it flowered

Poor tree lost 5 leaves in a storm the week before it flowered, I have to use bungee cords to secure it to the deck.

Nice banana,the only thing you can do is cut the top and put it inside a greenhouse,otherwise if you leave it outside its doomed.
