Default How's your variegated "namwah"

Mine died this past winter because of being inside and overwatering after being growing very healthy while it was outside

Does anybody managed to get pups of their plants? I'm trying to get another one, but can't find any on e-bay

Mine did something similar with some help from a slug that hitchiked its way inside and ate the actively growing leaf before i had a chance to save the plant the slug had done its damage and the leaf was dead. I'm going to be relocating soon so I'm waiting before I get another one. My other nanas survived the winter alright.

My two hung on for about a month, didn't produce any new leaves, and bit the big one. I used OK soil(no great), but they seemed to rather finiky in general.
I'd be nice to buy a larger one and try again.

Any more updates. I haven't seen any other plant of this variety on e-bay.

Dead. Spent the winter indoors with fig twigs which were rooting. They are fine, it is not.
