I had a red vein on the leaves of Matt's Basjoo too, but they disappeared once I put the plant in the garden.
Very strange!

Hi Sherry,
Thank you very much for your welcome! 
I have just posted in in 'Main Banana Discussion' my speculation, that the red veins in the M. Basjoo may only appear in young leaves and may become more visible, when backlit (see my picture).
Unfortunately there is no way for me to check this out until May or June, unless it shows up in the wee pup I am trying to raise indoors.
Best,
Olaf
