You got home OK ,,,looks like. It is not quite as simple as that. There
is a tendency on all plants to "fail" to continue a sporting section .
This is true on many "color" sports. Euonymus, Maples amd most other that
verigate, will be overcome by the more dominant color arrangements in the
plant. I have seen this take place on some pretty good streaked sports
in Hostas. Only by removing the sport, can it be faithfully preserved.
