So I have this Aolcasia nobillis. She started out with this gorgeous pink variegation \& currently has only two (still gorgeous) green and white leaves. Any ideas on what happened?

was probably a tissue culture \& tissue cultures are notorious for being unstable. you can try putting it in more light and see what happens but it may have fully reverted, and in that case you'd have to cut the rhizome to get variegation back

Thanks so much for this reply! I’m pretty new to this so I was stumped. Much appreciated! :)
