Something interesting about the silver nes, is that some will make silver
plants froma leaf cutting and some make regular green tweed colour ones! I
think that there re many silver plants which have had many names put on
them, and much possible confusion about it. When i get out my oldest
catalogues, going back to 1975, i will make a listing of all the names
with which I have gotten the silver plants. I have an interesting thing
here in the nursery...a Mason-Congo has put out an offshot with two
connected silver Mason-Congos on it. too soon to break out the champagne,
but i sure hope it is stable.

Yes it is nice to meet a plant friend anywhere!
