Variagation in D. falcatum var. sengteeanum?

Post by bepah »

I picked up a D. falcatum var. sengteeanum in extremely poor condition, in fact, the only culms alive look like straight from seed, but I suspect they are whipshoots remaining from the original plant.

It ssems to be recovering in ground nicely, but I notice that the leaves are variagated

Is this normal? When do I make a point about it if it is not? Should I wait until new normal culms arise before /i even bother about this?

The leaves are striking, by the way......
