Re: New Variegated Banana
Thanks, everyone, for your nice comments.
Martin, varig8 gave me some super advice for keeping mine alive, and I haven't lost one yet. He recommended planting my new arrivals in half well-draining potting soil and half Perlite and cutting off all the leaves except the newest one, which you cut in half and then not watering until you see some sign of growth. He has even had success in planting in all Perlite.
I hope yours will be okay. I'm doing my best to ignore mine as they seem to do best without me fussing with them. I'd love to see a picture of yours if you have the time.
