Re: Ae-Ae bananas on Hawaii Island
I was told they are difficult too, but I haven't found that to the case - so far.
Got mine late summer of '09, and planted it in a shady spot under my big live oak where it would get filtered light throughout the day. I left it in the ground and then we had the coldest, wettest winter we've had in several years, killing all my bananas to the ground. I was sure it was dead but it was one of the first to pop up in the spring and has done really well this summer. We had some really dry weather in October with very low humidity and this caused some ugly brown spotting on the white part of the leaves as Gabe mentioned.
Still keeping my fingers crossed.
