Drummer Super Dwarf Patio Banana Plant


Ok, that's the plant I bought. It looks like I've done almost everything wrong so far,and she's still growing and, I think, looking good.
First, I thought she'd do well in sunlight, but apparently not. She needs less sun and lots of water. Originally I had her in the wrong soil, but I've since gotten her a new pot and hopefully the correct soil. She's planted in a huge pot with cactus and palm tree soil, but the bag says it's not recommended for pots. Everywhere I look for information, I find conflicting information, but I'm still trying to keep her going. This is supposed to be a new type of banana for here, but popular in Europe.
This is what I know about bananas: I love to eat them and they look great in the yard.
Now, does anyone know anything about this banana type? I've posted some pictures here, and she looks pretty good to me, but what do I know? If anyone can help me, please do so. Or, if I'm doing anything correct, please let me know.
Thanks to anyone who knows anything about this plant.
