Default Re: What's wrong with my Red Abyssinian?

Honestly, I believe it is an Ensete Ventricosum 'Maurelii' (Red Abyssinian banana)....they get very faded in the sun and lose their auburn completion. Mine looks very similar. And for the record, mine is VERY touchy. The leaf that is coming out right now is probably the first in a LONG time to appear normal. I'm not sure what the issue is with mine either....I water correctly, fertilize, it's in a large enough pot, no insects/diseases, etc.
