Ok, at first I wasn't sure if it was a virus, but a new leaf is unrolling, and it has a solid white streak on it, not sure if I like this or not as the plant might be weak. I will put a pic on here when it fully unrolls.

When it arrived, the leaves were burned from being in the mailbox for a bit, but I could see some markings, and at first thought they could be a virus, but after the new leaf is almost completely unrolled, I can see that it is very clearly defined unlike a virus. It will be interesting to see how white the markings get.:woohoonaner:

Still variegated, newest leaf is more so, half yellow/white on one side, and green on the other. I will upload another pic later tonight.

I went ahead and took a shot real quick, the variegation seems to be limited to one side of the midrib. And the side that is yellow green is smaller than the solid green side, I am thinking it is a chimera. It is growing under lights, so probably be more vivid in sunlight later.

I'm not really seeing this as variegated. Probably just lacking some nutrient.

I call it traits of a T/C till it grows into its own.. Plants w/o corm power will do weird things.. :^)

Lol, it doesn't show up well in photos, but it's quite a bit lighter on one side. It may grow out of it though. I will keep posting pics on the next few leaves to see what happens

I think if you transplant it to a larger pot with some decent soil it will grow out of it.
