My first plant of that description  (very nice wide leaves) was called
Platinum Princess, perhaps ...maybe from Mobile gardens in NY. Sometimes
called by some other names...silver futura..the names you list are to me,
all the same as silver queen, and i dont mean your names are wrong, far
from it...only that it is interesting how many names can exist for the same
plant.  i don't get that upset over this..I buy plants sometimes just to
see what the name looks like rather than what the plant looks like.
