Anyone else growing this one? Check out the color on the lower part of the pseudostem

Here's a view of the whole plant. The top half of the pseudostem is waxy, and newer leaves have purple midribs. A very colorful species, and supposed to be zone 7 hardy. I'll be giving mine somewhat of a test by leaving it outside this winter, but it will be protected very well.
