that is true....but on the otherhand when the nanas grow in the wild they are usually under a canopy of other trees. so pretty much they only get filtered light. unless they are on a nana plantation. and im sure when they put out a new pup it burns up too. so there are a few things we can do...let the leaes burn and pray that the new leaves coming out have an spf of 45...or shade screen the whole yard (who can afford that)... or grow them under a canopy...me i want to see if they have an spf of 45. lol!

p.s. i understand the water co giving you !@#$. let them tell me this summer im not to water outside plants. ill take a 1 gal milk jug and put it in the ground next to my nanas. poke holes in the sides of the jug, and cover the whole thing but the opening with mulch. and fill it up with water and let it go. where there is a nana it will get watered.
