Got this 2 years ago at Home Depot with no name. They've been grown in pots, and get 2 1/2 -3 ft tall, usually with nearly all green leaves(not as many burgundy blotches as in these pics). Lots of pups at a young age. Any ID ideas? Are they 'Little Prince'?
Thanks,
Paul

Do some SDC have the splotches and some not? Like I said in the original post, most leaves are all green, (like the upper plant in the bottom pic). This spring, these leaves have more markings than any I've seen before. Just checking, not doubting!
Thanks again!

I think all of my SDCs have some red in them...

I've got either an SDC or a Truly Tiny, but honestly, - Doesn't even matter if it is a "Little Prince" either they all have red. Some indeed have very pale, hardly noticeable red though. My mini-mystery has very faint red, but it's there and obvious from time to time.
