Re: How little chlorophyll does one need?

Interesting what you say about juvenile offshoots Bill, I have wondered for a long time now why a variegated offshoot I removed has never resembled the mother plant, now I know. By the way, I bought this plant unlabelled, any suggestions to its identity anyone?
