Dan, thanks, but NO THANKS! LOL When I met Jon a couple of months ago he told me that the Ae Ae is the only banana he has every killed!

I think I'll transplant mine into sand. Just joking.
I have no intention of repotting my Ae Ae. It is in a peat and compost potting mix and doing well. But, I don't want to increase the pH level of my soil by using water that is about 6.9 and have quesitons on use of vinegar that others have used for other plants. Also, I an curious about the pink edge on the leaves that grew when Stokes had it. Do the leaves of your Ae Ae have this pink edge? What's that about?
