Default Variegated namwah

It's been a while since I posted here. My garden's been pretty much left to turn into a jungle while I've been recovering from a few medical issues. I'm back on my feet now (mostly, I do have to take it slow) and took a look at ebay, which I should know better than to do. I found this listed as a variegated Namwah and couldn't bring myself to say no to it. I hope I didn't just get taken for a ride or anything, but it got here in one piece and it's pretty.

$100 + $15 shipping. I've never spent that much on one plant before, it but seems to be what variegated ones tend to cost.

Great looking plant! looks like a Musa Namwa Mailong. I love mine. The new leaves are solid light green. As they age a little they show a yellow/green variegation. As they age more they show more of a cream white/green variegation color. Very pretty plant! I really enjoy mine!

Congrats!

That seems to be the pattern this is following. That solid light green leaf has changed a lot over the last 4 days. This is it now:
