Hi Cyan
        I am sure no expert on this subject or probably any subject for that
matter but a sport is a division of a plant that puts out a different
color on the leaves. It has to do with chimeras deep in the growing
point of the plant that put out different pigments(I think this is close
to right).
Bye
Bob
