Tom,

There appears to be no information other than a description.
This is what the Wish Letter says about 'Frosty Spears.'

"An adult plant is a fan, spiralled like a helix, about 20"
across.  The leaves are very smooth and cylindrical in shape
with a very sharp tip.  The dark green, thin stripes are on
an almost white surface with faint light green crossbands
which gives the plant its 'frosty' appearance.  These plants
are 12'-14' tall with a 13-16" spread - not spiralled yet,
but are just beginning to do so."

I just received a S. pearsonii and it does appear to be
quite similar in shape to my 'Frosty Spear', but not at all
in the coloration.

The picture on Supanee's Sansevieria page is a very good one
of 'Frosty Spear'.  My plant has a slightly lighter gray
color to it.
