Last Name of the Person Who Discovered The Potential Sport: Unknown

Have you submitted a sport before? And if so, what number would this submission be?: 1

Mutation Expression: Green on Green (GoG)

Color/Pattern Description: Sectored (Large sections of the leaves contain solid expressions of the mutation)

Striped (Several strips of the expressed mutation can be seen branching from the midrib)

Mottled (Overlapping mutations evenly expressed on top of one another)

Speckled (Tiny distributed spots or specks of the expressed mutation can be observed)

Visible on internodes, Visible on petiole, Visible on midrib

Does your sport have any morphological properties that are consistent? Such as strange shaped leaves, odd textures, etc. If so, please describe::

Have you propagated this sport yet?: Yes

If so, how many successful propagations have you managed so far? And what were your primary methods?: To date I’ve taken a mid cutting and a top cutting. Variegation persisted on all cuttings and has stayed consistent throughout each plant.

Have you had any reversions? If so how many from your total propagation numbers?: No reversions to date.

When did the mutation occur?: Seedling stage

And lastly, what's the story? How did you discover this plant? Paint us a picture!: I purchased this plant as a seedling from a grower who owns a nursery down in Florida! I had heard of this seller from another friend and was able to choose this plant from a handful of others. Since then it’s growing into 3 specimen sized plants and is unlike anything I’ve seen before! Leaves unfurl looking like plain green leaves, and harden off to show wonderful variegation. Variegation gets more intense as the leaf hardens and with increase to light exposure.
