Well, YAKUZA:
- Don't look for Saba, if I can advice you! The fruit is edible, yet better used for cooking, but the plant is damn damn damn damn tall and has the most robust stature I've ever seen. You won't be able to move it for winter, it's jsut tooooooo massive.
- Let's hope not, my dispositions for growing an Ae Ae are very limited and I wouldn't wanna such plant to suffer in my conditions, even though it's degenarated already
I was thinking more about other variegated spiecies, some hardier, like Nam Wa's (which are called Nam Wa Pearl, but they reportedly die to many good growers) or other interesting plant that I could put in for the winter.
Ae Aes are beautiful, but there so many other wonderful plants much more suitable to growing in our conditions. Maybe the only one here, who could grow the Ae Ae with some problems is Kalabrian...
Also, this is precisely that kind of a plant, that I want to see a person behind, so I would not buy it any cost, good or bad.
Nanas have to have their history, don't you think? A tie to someone you might always see in the plant.
