Frozen banana

I need to make more banana paper for the covers of my thesis. But, we have had below freezing weather now for 5 (?) days, unusual for Alabama, and the banana plant in my backyard is totally deflated. Previously, in making the paper I have used the turgid, water filled stalks of the non-frozen incarnation. I may have to experiment with using the fiber of the crushed and frozen stalks, and see if I get a similar result. If anybody knows about this drop me a line: kidneypress@gmail.com.
