Default Re: Musa "Heliconia" Variagated - Info please?

This one has been pretty much trouble-free for me. It grow it outside in a pot every year and it takes as much sun as I give it. I'd say it gets a half day of sun easily with no instances of burning. I keep it inside during the winter and this is really the only one I've never had issues with spider mites on. It's leaves are pretty waxy and sturdy as compared to say, H. rostrata.
