thicker leaves, especially the sieboldianas, but not exclusively to those 
varieties. I've seen it on plants in the ground as well as in pots. It

Did the plants last year grow out of it or keep that look all season.  I 
believe this has happened to my Blue Angel and Hadspen Blue.  These two 
plants and individual leaves are significantly smaller then last year.
