Default Re: New Color Siam Ruby

Ok so I swung by PDN this weekend and spoke with Tony Avent, he mentioned that he sees this coloration in about 5% of his Siam Rubies. He also echoed what Gabe said regarding TC'ing this plant and there is no way to proedict what will happen. Can someone help me ID this banana I received from a freind it's cold hardy to zone 7 and the 8 leaf I now see this coloration. Tony thought it was a NamWah Pearl but I thought it was not cold hardy in zone 7. Any help would be appreciated.
