Just to say that the variegated Spathiphyllum appears to be "Domino" which
is an introduction by Milestone Agriculture Florida. Unlike many variegated
Spath mutations, the white variegation is stable & does not brown. Both
leaves & spathes can be variegated.
Since I specialise only in Spathiphyllum species & cultivars I would greatly
appreciate news of anything "new" not already here in the "World
Collection"?

Joe,
I am the manager of the Home Depot greenhouse in Pa. and every once in a
while I can order the Spath you are talking about. The price is about the
same, $7. I saw this available about a year ago from the growers in
Homestead Fl. and anything weird and different, I order, regardless if it
sells. I think the grower is either Costa, Mike Costa or First Foliage.
They do sell fast whenever I receive them. A true rare find, isn't it?
