How do you trim a banana tree that has suffered from frost damage?

The best bet it to only remove leaves or small branches that show signs of damage within several days of exposure. If leaves become somewhat wilted, do not trim too early. This can be expected; some of the cells have frozen, expanded and burst, causing the leaf or branch to sag lower or wilt. If the branch or leaf in question has not perked up within several days, the plant will continue to recover any nutrients possible and discard the foliage. When it becomes heavily wilted, dark dull green or even slightly dry, the branch can be removed. The tree will do most of the work itself, so don't trim too much. Keep giving the correct amount of water and nutrients so as not to shock the plant. For instance, if fertilizer is increased and changes the pH or any other impact it may have on the tree may have an increased effect on the plant already in shock from the frost exposure.
