I take it you protect the pseudostems with straw over winter? If so I would not cut them down...just let the nutrients roll back into the roots. You have a good clump - well done!
Yes I cover the whole plant in plastic sheeting like sleeping bags usually 4 bags I hate bending (breaking) the leaves to keep them covered but it usually works ...if I can't cover the tops then they die . Thank you I might get straw again as well

Thanks blairs it didn't put about many shoots this year but I don't think it was a warm summer I will chop them off tomorrow before I cover them ....
