Care for your plant just like you would other banana plants.
There are some good threads in the forum on soillesss mix's and growing conditions.
Youtube offers some great how to videos on banana care too.

You might find this of interest to get you started.

Good luck and have fun.
Send us a photo of your plant once it sort itself out.
