Looks like snow queen. Most marble queens. At least ones I seen. Mine included. Has a solid green one. Like a golden pothos looking stem.

Heres what it looked like when i bought (saved) the poor thing, i see it has a lot more green, would it be marble then?

The yellowish variegation turned more white as it got healthier, but im assuming that happens w both

i learned recently snow queen and marble queen are actually the same, the name snow queen is used for a more variegated marble queen, likely to help sell more. it makes sense they’re actually the same, since everyone seems to have a different opinion on what the differences between the two are.

#### Jay replied on 2024-02-14

That makes a lot of sense, thank you

Agree! My understanding is they are the same plant, one just getting more light which means it will have more variegation. Marble queens can have a wide range of variegation, we call it a snow queen if the variegation is over 70% white… or something like that.

#### Tigerlilly replied on 2024-02-15

Agree with this. I read that they are actually the same plant just named different to help sell more of them.

With variegated plants, they always need more sunlight than non-variegated kinds. It’s because there’s less chlorophyll in their leaves to photosynthesis. This will help with its beautiful leaf pattern!
