Default Variegated Basjoo!!?

I planted out a Basjoo that I picked up at a local nursery last fall. It's growing a pup now with variegated first three leafs. Bright white stripe in each from tip to petiole with green. I will post a pic later if it stays this way. Hopefully, it can grow a bit before the big freeze.

Could this be something special? I don't know really.

It looks more like an AeAe right now than anything else I've seen. A pic right now would not be too impressive since it only has it's first three little leaves. I will get a pic up when I have something more to show.

Sodak,
You should take a picture of it right now anyway...because if the variegation does disappear, you will still have the photo when it was all variegated!
