I don't know, but I don't see it on the largest leaf on the left hand side
of the plant.

I had a couple of basjoo from a tc'd batch of basjoo, they were variegated when they were smaller, but when they got to be about a foot and a half, they apparently outgrew it and became all green. I think it looks like that one is doing that too. They started out with big white patches, and then they got smaller and went away on the newer leaves.
That would be a bummer to pay that much for one and have it do that. Of course, that may also be legit.
