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

Very Sturdy and Safe for Tough Chewers
Style: Muskie
We already had a smaller fish toy from this brand, and after 4 months it is, amazingly, still intact. So we ordered this larger one as a holiday present. Our dog usually can rip apart any toy, even "tough chewer" toys, within a few minutes or hours, so this brand is a definite keeper for us. We have also had their giraffe toy for 4 months with no rips or holes. The best part is that there is no stuffing to worry about. Inside the toy is a rope toy instead of stuffing, so it is so much less risky. Highly recommended.

Not worth the money
The dog toy that I received looks nothing like the picture. There is no stuffing, the seams are on the outside leaving frayed fabric exposed and toy itself is tiny. It is being returned.

Owls love it too!
My friend who is a licensed Master Falconer currently has an Owl as her partner. The owl (a female) is playful and had stolen a dog toy a while back and played with it until she shredded it. She loves her squeaky fish and plays with it every morning, tossing it about or shaking it.

Great toy
Style: Crappie
Bought this for my "nephew" dog who goes fishing with us every year in a boat. Keeps him busy. He loves it.

Sturdy but stitched weird
This is a sturdy toy with thick fabric. I love the printing and the rope inside. My coonhound destroys anything resembling plush in a heartbeat and this is perfect for her. The weird thing is the stitching. When making something with a pattern, you'd usually turn the outsides to each other, stitch it up, then turn it "inside out" (which is then actually right-side out) and stitch up the last bit after filling or whatever. This was just put together right-side out and stitched, so it looks kind of unfinished. The stitching is solid, no complaints there, but it keeps it from being a great gift, which it could be if it was stitched better. When I looked at the pictures of the different options I noticed some were stitched like mine and some "normally". Weird. Otherwise great.
