    MAGIC FICUS ELASTICA VARIEGATA

    Variegated plants - does not matter whether they are in white (Albo), yellow (Aurea) or in any other colour are always pretty fascinating as one can never know what kind of variegation of the leaves will develop as next ...

    Having grown this variegated Ficus Elastica I have noticed that every second leaf, which is coming is either "half-moon" or almost a "full-moon" ...

Does not matter which way you take, enjoy the preparation and please be patient... Sansevierias are rather "slow growers".
