Gotta watch this one.
These are traps on one of my G16 divisions. All are from the same plant, so I might have a striated plant. If it holds, maybe send it to Matt for propagation and he can call it FTS Tiger Stripes. As opposed to other G16 traps in the same pot, all of which started as a single plant.

Really like the top one. Cloning that particular leaf might yield better results than a division.

I've heard that at times striation can be caused by a virus and cannot be propagated. Pretty cool, though.

Well that sucks!
We'll see what happens next spring. I can prop some leaf pulls and experiment.

Sorry, your response hit a nerve (funny bone) with me. Ain't nothing like being an Alabamian watching a Georgian rain on a Tennessean's parade.

Cool looking plant, but, uh, well maybe, sorta...kinda... May the force be with you!

Any update on whether the marbled/striped coloring has persisted?

I looked over it and it is either overgrown, or grew out of it. Dang!
