I found a good thread:

What is Glui Kai?

But I still have a few questions; What zone can they live in? What ammount of light (I think part sun)?

Edit: they are called Kluay Kai. But Agri-Starts calls them M. Glui Kai... why?

Great. Now we have this banana on 3 forums.

Its just a difference of romanization from the Thai language for 'egg banana' or as Tog use to say: 'egg nanner.

Really should be 'Kluai Khai' and that is what I often see used in research papers. But if it is registered as a cultivar with a certain romanization, if that may be 'Glui Kai' or whatever, then that is what is supposed to be used.
