Im sure you will get some email from people that have them for sale. Thats how I got mine plants. AeAe are nice but they are a little sensitive to sun so be careful in full sun. I love my plants,
Paulo

Are you sure that's variegation? Looks like a mineral deficiency to me.

There are Variegated "Ice Creams" (probably Namwah or something else though) being sold out there as well as the well-known but expensive Ae Ae, there's a few others too that go under weird names like Florida, which, to me look like Ae Ae. Not sure if I'm seeing a questionable seller or not.

I've actually seen three musa basjoo variegations. They can be slight like that and fade over time or some just keep this yellow variegation.I've also seen a mutated basjoo that grew two trunks of fruit not just one. Reminds me of the double mahoi.

There is also musa Tanee which is a rare banana plant. There is one going on eBay but it's in Thailand.

I beleive that I have seen that Tanee may be an unstable verigate, would like to know if this is true. P

Yes! it fades as the leaves age.
