Once, ownership of this banana was restricted to Hawaiian royalty, but today anyone can own one. Despite its widespread release, Musa 'Ae Ae' is still one of the most highly sought -after bananas for ornamental purposes. While it is not the most hardy banana, we have been able to successfully overwinter it with a leaf-filled cage that extends 4' tall and 3' on either side of the main trunk. Of course, winter storage indoors is always a good option. The 15' tall plants are composed of highly variegated green-and-white sectored leaves. When the plants mature, you'll get a crop of edible variegated bananas as well...how fun! Show more
