This plant has brought many collectors, hobbyists, and general plant enthusiasts to their knees.  It is considered by many to be the most gorgeous variegated plant that there is, and I happen to agree. The leaves look impossibly beautiful, as though they were hand painted with emerald green, mint, and pure white.  And even the fruit is variegated as well! 

To add to this plant's mystique, a ban on importing banana plants overseas went into place two years or so ago, which has decimated the supply and raised the demand. This plant, already considered beautiful and rare, now has a cult-like following, and the price reflects this.

Due to the import ban, our shop needed to find these plants domestically. We searched for about a year and are so so so so so excited to finally have expertly grown variegated musa to offer you today.

From our grower:

'These plants are currently acclimated to 70% humidity. They’re not finicky once they are at this size. They are watered every few days. Don’t let the medium dry out and don’t let water sit on the leaves.  We feed these every watering with a balanced fertilizer (20-20-20).'

This plant is considered a lowland tropical plant.  Once established it is possible to grow it outside in warmer parts of the Bay Area under a light shade cloth. Otherwise we highly recommend growing this plant indoors in a sunny window or under Sol Tech grow light.

My personal experience is that these happily adjust to regular household humidity after a period of adjustment where you may experience some browning of the leaves.  New leaves will grow that are better suited for your environment. Again this is my personal experience and results may vary. Many of our customers have had wonderful success transferring their bananas to Pon, however we do not recommend repotting your banana for at least 3 weeks after it arrives

Switching back to Paula’s choice
While I like the all natural ingredients, I switched back to Paula’s Choice instead. In my opinion, I think it works better.

The Best Clean Beauty Facial Sun Screen!
This spring I tried four different clean beauty facial sunscreens. This is my favorite. First, it goes on with a light tint that rubs in, which moisturizers and becomes a primer for my bare minerals powder foundation makeup. Absolutely no flacking after applying the powder. (Many times if I am just out walking, playing pickleball or working in my garden I just wear this and skip the makeup) Second, the scent is so nice and light. Third, and actually most importantly is the rating on Yuka of excellent and that it works very well in the sun. I have worked hard to find only clean beauty products for my skin and I so appreciate of companies that provide them at an affordable price. I highly recommend this sunscreen.

Very thick but it's great otherwise as a light indoors sunscreen
I didn't mean to buy two, so definitely gonna return one. Two ounces, but for $12 that's pretty decent! Looks like this is mostly made for just the face and neck, so if you use it for your whole body then yeah, not worth the price. But just for the face? This will last me a long time. Most nice face sunscreens are like $20 for 1.5oz so $12 for 2oz is great. I didn't pay enough attention and saw that it was SPF 30 once it got here. Which has me very confused because there's 24% zinc in it. That's almost the cap. Much higher SPF products have half that amount. It also has other plant extracts which are said to boost spf so I really don't get why this is so low. I'm hoping the ppd at least is high, even though we have no way of really knowing with American sunscreens and even companies who do measure are greedy with that information and refuse to tell. So we are left guessing most of the time. But, SPF is UVB rays. UV-burning. Ppd is UVA. UV-aging. Apparently American sunscreens have terrible UVA protection, or they just don't tell us at all. So the fact a few people in here were saying they were tanning through this sunscreen shows me that perhaps it's not very high, or that this is more of an incidental "I'm not going outside too much" sunscreen. Which, not surprising. SPF 30 lol. Its very thick and moisturizing, so this seems like it would be the perfect winter sunscreen when the UV index is low and the air is dry. Its also difficult to find tinted sunscreens for very fair skin. And on the off chance there is one, it's usually either too dark anyway, or has an orange tint. This one may be a sunscreen not best for darker skin types but man is the tint perfect for the palest of us! It has light coverage too. I mean my flaws aren't blurred or anything but my acne scars are a bit lighter colored. And the great thing about tint, is it gives protection again VL/visible light. Only tinted sunscreens offer that extra bit of protection. I just wish the spf were higher! It also has a very light orangey smell. Also is water proof. So they say. It washed off a bit too easy for me to believe that though. All in all it's a nice sunscreen. But I don't think I will re-purchase this once I run out in the warmer months, though I may consider it again once fall hits.
