Undulata Albomarginata >>
Undulata albomarginata is a larger plant that Decorata 'Thomas Hogg'
But the problems seems to be in the origin of plants sold under the name
'Thomas Hogg'
This plant has come from Europe and as has been the case with many other
plants, many diffrent and dissimilar plants were sent off to the USA that
were not correctly named.
I am sure that many Undulata albomarginata's were sold as 'Thomas Hog' thus
making ID confusing to those that do not have the correct plant.
