Talking Hawaii source for Ae Ae

I've been looking for an old Hawaiian variety called Ae Ae (variegated), but don't see any so far in the places I've contacted on O'ahu. The seller would have to be in Hawaii, otherwise getting the plant shipped would be difficult (and costly). Any help would be appreciated.

I'm even willing to fly to another island, dig, pack and bring it back myself if necessary.

Mahalo,
Yug

tried your luck on the island craigslist ?? I know exactly what u must have gone thru looking for plants there.. I know people must be wondering how people from hawaii and nearby would need to search so hard for native plants..Reeeeeed tape.. Ive talked to people saying im lucky to have some of the native island plants i have..they have been searching.

I bought one of my Ae Ae from eBay seller hibotanical in Hilo Hawaii. You might see if you can locate him. His name is Dennis.

I'd avoid bringing any banana plants back because of the risk of spreading bbtv.
