jill, i grow musa basjoo here in fallston, md (zone 6b) and they do well in the ground over the winter. i also have many types of trachycarpus, which remain green all year round. check out http://www.hardytropicals.com they have a good selection of palms and bananas, and i have found them very good to deal with.
here is a pic of a musa basjoo, with a trachycarpus fortuneii ( taylor form ) in the foreground.
it was taken july 10, 2007. they get a little bigger each year; unfortunately, i do not get full sun anwhere. i planted a musa sikkemensis last year, but i'll have to wait til spring to see if it survived. it was very big and beautiful! i bought it from hardytropicals.com
