![]() I just received what is supposed to be a "Goldfinger" and a "California Gold" that I ordered off the internet from what has been a reliable source in the past. Both plants are about 10" tall with 2 -3 leaves and appear to be healthy. The problem is that they both have red splotches on the leaves. I thought that both of these varieties were known for being solid green.
The person that I bought them from just told me that they should turn all green as they get a bit larger. Does this seem correct? I don't want to find out 6 months from now that I was sent a couple of Dwarf Cavendish instead of what I ordered. Thanks. |
