Does anyone know if this is sport variegation on my chiapense? The couple leaves before this do have color variations on them. I’m not sure if this is common for chiapense (or if there is something wrong with my plant lol). Although it seems to be healthy!

That’s cool! That big spot looks like sport to me. The darker green leaf looks more like streaks of discoloring, but it’s hard to tell in a picture. But it looks like a healthy and pretty plant! I haven’t seen a chiapense in person myself. Nice find

Thank you! I haven’t seen one in stores either, I actually found this on Amazon last year through a nursery where I got my Syngonium albo from.

Mine has been starting to do that too- I’ve noticed it since I put it on a moss pole. I was worried that it was starting too wet with the moss pole and that this was a result because it seems to be getting more pronounced with each leaf

That’s interesting! I just put mine on a moss pole today, I didn’t have it on anything prior. I think the leaves look really cool though. Yours seems healthy too!
