Just doing a quick google search revealed what ColdCanadian mentioned.. evidentally, there are quite a bit of bananna tree growers here... never knew that! lol. Thats what you get for assuming! I do want to try the coconut idea though. Will look into doing that.
Bananas tend to freeze to the ground most winters in most parts of Texas and Louisiana, they melt around
32-35F. They come back strong from roots though, Bananas will survive a few mild winters in your area, but will still freeze quite often.
I wouldn't expect the coconut to last long, but definitely try!

Its just like ilovemycomputer90 says... as long as it isn't too long, or that many of them. Most places here in S. Texas might only go below freezing for a few hours, if it even goes below freezing. There are other varieties of palms that might not do as well here either. There are several variables involved, no doubt.
