I do not recall him saying this. i thought he just did what we all did
which was look at millions of plants and pick the ones with variegation.

I imagine if anyone had the formula for making variegated Sansevierias, we
would be seeing stars and stripes and every kind of thing. instead of a
slow trickle.
the reason there are so many variants of certain kinds of Sansevierias is
that they are propagated in great numbers. the more you propagate, the more
you are likely to do what it takes to make variegation. if we had fields of
the rarest Sansevierias, grown ideally and forced to grow as fast as it is
safe for them, we would commence seeing variegation, i am sure.

sorry, no footnotes.
