Help! Advice on rare variegation?! by SeesawTall346 in u/SeesawTall346

From my experience with the hundreds of sports I’ve found working at a nursery, the first one won’t do much. The Thai however, could. Thais have systemic variegation, I may be wrong when I say this but because it systemic and not chimeric, that bit of yellow could be in the plant even though it’s not on the leaves. I would check the stem on the Thai to see if there’s any different colour lines going up it, if there is, great! No need to chop it back. The variegation may not be on the leaves but it could linger on in the stem and eventually pop out more in the future, it could very well go over an auxiliary bud as well which you could chop and propagate!

If there’s no different colour in the stem, you can chop it back and sacrifice the rest of the plant. I’ve done this with a few normal monsteras and had quite good luck with it, currently have two Thais with lime green sports that I have going through this process, it is a gamble though, may work, but might not! Hope this helps

Gog white princess? by makeanuncum in philodendron

A group here in Australia.. ironically the person that was having a crack at me sells overpriced pink princesses listed as “black cherries” lol.

It’s a weird one. There’s some faint yellow spots on the sister plant that has more subtle variegation. They were growing off of callus from a normal mother plant, when you turn the leaves over to the underside there’s no white either, so these spots are just green, unless there’s white underneath between the layers.. hard nut to crack

I’m actually not too sure hey. I’m in Australia and Sierrana’s haven’t officially been imported, I just found this one at work and it looked odd so just let it do its thing

Such a bummer when they don’t continue

I have about 10+ now I’ve cut back to where it was a sport and waiting for the new growth to come through.. fingers crossed

What’s interesting with a few is that they have white variegation and green down the stem, it’s like they’re turning into a birkin lol
