I am in zone 9 and i intend to get one and try outside with protection and see what hapens, it is quite un known on they survial with the cold at the moment as far as i could find out. SO if i was you i would get one as they are lovely plants and either risk it outside or bring it in. HOpe this helped

Hi, I have been searching info everywhere. Then, it was right here all the time. It seems Siam Ruby was only discovered about two years ago in Thailand. I found that it is actually a wild banana that may be related to Musa Acuminata . As I said before Thailand is 80s and higher at all times. I checked some of my plant books and did find a red leaf ornamental and it says
not under 66 degrees in winter. So considering it's origin I wouldn't chance it.
Is zone 9 Florida?
