Hmmm, well, I guess I've been lucky to see several with no striping at all, and grew one with no striping. But, I still want another one just like my last one. I know it sounds weird, but I really loved that plant and I've been hooked on getting another just like it ever since. I'm keeping the one I have, maybe it'll stop throwing colored leaves and also get more of a cinnamon color on the backside (which it has, but the spiral backside isn't as colorful as I'd like). So if anyone has one they're willing to sell or a young one they're willing to let go of, please PM me!!
