    The musa jamacian red variegated looks interesting. How does it compare to the red musa? It appears to have a rounder leaf. Do have fun and take a lot of photos that you can share.

    Love the variegated jaimacan red nana. You really like variegates don't you? The tradescantia spathacea is real pretty too.
    I have a couple pink princesses too. I need to give them a moss pole to climb on. I heard the leaves will grow much larger when they have a grow pole. Yours have some nice variegation.
    Did anyone notice that Logees is now selling Pink Princess? I was sort of suprised to see that.

    karma ,
    i got that banana from banana jack , ft lauderdale area . he received a shipment of tissue culture musa. this one was a tad different so he kept it and grew it out in his back yard . the amazing part is that its pups show the same qualities of variegation .

    jeri and i were coming back from a show and saw his nursery , turned around and stopped . he was closed but we rang the bell at the gate until he finally came out .lol lol poor guy lol he told us he was closed but as you know i could not accept that answer .lol lol after begging and explaining i was from out of state, he took us for a tour .
    this guys place was fab!!! i have never seen so many rare palms , and banana clumps every where. just an amazing south florida garden !!! we became quick buddies and he shared this banana with me . he says that was the first one he has ever released . he is getting older and can not ensure a future for this plant , and asked would i make sure it had a chance for future generations . i will name it after him one day .

    sultry_jasmine_night,
    i do like the variegation, can not help myself .lol lol if i'm driving down the highway at 90mph , i can still see variegation in yards .lol lol i'm surprised i have not hit more people with my van, while looking at plants lol lol

    bob ,
    i understand , work is a must in life !! i'm glad you have a job, lots of americans are not so fortunate . i will be coming and going to florida allot , the shows are just starting . jeri will FORCE me to go to all of the plant shows in the warm florida air .lol lol i'm sure we will run across each other one day .
