My banana plant (little more than a seedling) is looking decidedly unhappy. This is the first one I've managed to sprout from seed (total beginner), it did very well over the summer, but now it's looking very droopy. One leaf appears to have died and the tip of the other has gone black. Also it hasn't appeared to have grown at all since winter. Any suggestions of how I can revive it? Any feeds or watering tips that will help? I have a fairly bad track record with indoor plants but very keen to keep this one alive!

I would put at least 50% sand in the soil. I think it might help.
