Have some all white pups coming. The leaf looks tinted green in this picture, but is really just white. It's coming off one that I thought was going to be all white, but grew out of it to be nicely variegated.

I would guess maybe 1/3 have been albino. In the past I've killed them since I read that they won't grow on their own. Since learning they can survive and even fruit if left attached to the corm, I've decided to see what happens with this one. Others I've had didn't get past this point. I'm not sure what is supposed to be normal. No pattern that I can figure out. My other 2 are putting out only variegated pups. I've never had an all green pup, which I've read is not uncommon.

I didn't realize those were striped in your avatar but I'm old and I wear peepers. From what I've read, my variegated pink lemon makes striped fruit that fades to pure yellow when ripe.

Wow, you are doing a great job with these. I do not think Ae Ae will do very well where I am in FL. If the price were cheap I would give it a try at this point.
