also is there any difference between a white princess, knight, and warrior?

Adorable!

They’re all hybrids with different mixes of species contributing, is my understanding.

Key differences:  
-white night has dark stems, Princess and wizard green  
-princess has the narrowest leaves, knight the roundest  
-Princess might see some pink mixed in with white

And the most important difference: Princess should be self heading while the others like to climb

I repotted mine into a chunky soil mix and water when it’s dry. I’ve only had it for 7 months and it’s now doubled in size
