Miamimax, who is a member here on this forum, also has an incredible variety of variegated plants. Miamimax told me that he got many of his plants by spending the day perusing an enormous amount of greenhouse nursery plants at wholesale nurseries (acres and acres) in Florida and looking for the rare variegated plant. He told me that he suspected that mda1515 did the same and sells them on eBay.
I have bought lots of plants from mda (Mike) over the years. He has been very easy to work with. I spoke with him last month and he said he has these bananas on eBay. I havent seen any this but none ever this variegated. Harvey is correct that the mother plant is in a pot and not more than four feet.
Clare has very healthy plants and is an excellent source for variegated bananas. You should check out what she has!
