Default Re: Experimenting with creating filtered coarse sand for corms

Before I received my first variegated Florida there was little to no useful information about this banana on the forum. But immediately upon removing it from the shipping box it was obvious that it had a different genotype than the A'ea'e. I posted about the differences between the two so other members could properly distinguish their Florida from their A'ea'a. Now many members repeat those differences and some members have even added more characteristics they've noticed like colors or patterns. Sometimes these bananas exhibit greys and sometimes they don't, sometimes they exhibit pinks and reds and sometimes they don't, sometimes they exhibit similar color patterns and sometimes they don't. If a person learns how to identify these plants without using colors they will be able to differentiate between the all green versions while also being more accurate. You certainly don't need to wait until it flowers.
