Musa‘NoNo’ Pink Variegated is a fast growing rare collector’s plant. Its large, paddle-shaped banana leaves are streaked and sectored with vivid pink and cream variegation against bright green, and the intensity of the colouring, particularly on new growth, is genuinely striking. It is a vigorous, upright grower that adds an unmistakably tropical presence to any space, indoors or in a warm, sheltered position outside during summer. This is an ornamental banana grown entirely for its foliage rather than for fruit.

Origins
Musa‘NoNo’ is a cultivar of an as-yet undescribedMusaspecies originally collected from Papua New Guinea. The pink variegation is a naturally occurring cellular mutation, and its intensity can fluctuate depending on light levels and growing conditions.
