They have never responded to my messages. Ontheotherhand, the plants ship in a reasonable time and are well packaged. Haven't attempted a replacement, though I'd like a discount on a Blue Java or one of the vines I plan to order from them.

May try a walk up nursery for the Blue Java, though from what I hear on forums, it's likely they are selling Namwa too. 🤷

Drove down to Going Bananas and picked up a Blu Java a few years ago. It died. Mentioned it while talking to Don at an event and he was prepping to replace it until I explained it died from neglect (Tenants).
I just bought a Mekong Giant from sddarkman619, https://www.bananatreesforsale.com

It came in gorgeous shape and healthy. I understand he gets Blue Javas from time to time. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from him.

Great transaction with those guys!!
