Brown burn spots on leaves (pic)
 
I got a fairly large (24 inch box) beautiful Red Banana planted about 3 months ago. It went through its initial shock where most of the leaves died off, which I understand. There are new leaves starting to come in now, but I noticed a few have these brown burn spots on them (picture attached).

Was wondering if anyone had any ideas? Its not in full sun so not sure sunburn would be an issue.

Thanks for your help!

My Raja Puri here in the San Fernando Valley (So Cal) started off this year with partially burnt looking leaves but the subsequent leaves are fine. Is that an Ensete Maurelli you have?

Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure about it being a Ensete Maurelli, as it looks identical to pictures of them that I looked up online. My receipt from the nursery just says "Giant Red Banana"

Hopefully, the next few leaves will come in looking better. I also noticed the soil is always pretty damp so wondering if it could be a drainage issue?

Anyway thanks for the help,
Kevin
