Water it occasionally but don't over water. Move it to a place where it get light. You can also buy one of those tripod 2 light halogen shop lamps and put next to it. This will provide light and heat. Don't expect it to grow too much this winter. Just keep it alive. On sunny, warm spring days take it outside but bring it back inside on cold nights. When threat of frost is past, fertilize and take it outside permanently. It will start growing like crazy.

Yeah I plan to put it in the ground once the threat of frost is past. More of the leaves are yellowing so I think I am going to move it today and perhaps put it in the basement under some fluorescent lights. Like u said I don't really want it to grow I just don't want it to die on me.

I found that basjoos don't do well indoors, so you're best just keeping it alive til the weather warms up. Your soil looks dry. I've found, contrary to what others have said, that in fact a decent amount of water every so often seems to push out growth, even without a lot of light. That soil looks a light gray color, almost white. I would give it a good soaking until you see water pour out into the bottom saucer, then empty the excess water from the saucer. Grow lights would probably be beneficial but not necessary in keeping it alive.

I was thinking of putting it in the basement under some fluorescent lights. Do you think that would be sufficient.

NEW DISCOVERY: My basjoo is covered with mites. The barrage has started and I think those little buggers are about to pay DEARLY for what they have done.

Thats common. Try not to keep it near a heat vent. I spray my naners regularly with water w/ a drop of soap to help with the mites. Keep it in the ground this fall. This type of banana doesn't seem to do as well indoors in my experience.

Yeah I am currently spraying it down with soap. I intend to plant it in the ground as soon as the frost safe day comes.

I haven't any experience with the banana, however, I'm
overwintering one inside because I didn't realize that I could have left it in the ground. I potted it and now have
it in my garden room that gets most of its light from
overhead and a bit from the northern exposure. Long
story short...for a while it sat there with one leaf and
one leaf that hadn't unfurled. The tag said that it liked
water...so...I started to water it weekly....the leaf
unfurled and now another one has started to pop out. I'm
so happy because I love this plant. Try keeping it at
least moist. (LONG STORY!!)
