Plants can produce pups at any time and maturity or size is not that relevant.

This is easy to do with variegated water suckers.

Plant 'C' in this photo is a first cousin to the plant you are questioning about.

Both of their mother plants came from the same mother plant.

Plant 'C' will definitely produce fruit.

I don't have enough information yet to answer your question.

For members who might not be familiar with this type of variegation, here's what you are looking at.

'A' - is a mature Phantom leaf. You can compare it with Phantom flag leaf in the bottom photo and see the same mottled variegation and the slightly lighter green.

'D' - is the peduncle of Plant 'A'.

'C' - is a young sucker of Plant 'A' and will have the same exact variegation as it's mother as it matures.

'B' - is a normal green ABB leaf that's in the photo for a comparison.

Another flag
We get a bunch of new flags everyday but these are quickly becoming my favorite.

These are photos of Plant 'C' from the previous post, and as the leaves mature they change colors.

This was a cool pup I removed a couple years ago.

The pup started on one side of the plant and instead of going up it went down and went completely under the mother plant to emerge at the surface on the other side.
