    It's normal, just make sure it isnt getting too much light or it will turn red. New leaves tend to be white. Red is nono white is ok. If U notice they don't get darker as they age and continue putting out white leaves, could be unstable varigation, and ppl troubleshoot it by cutting it and letting new growth in.

    It's not uncommon, some darken up. Some need a slight reduction in light.

    Birkin has unstable variegation. If they're not getting enough light especially in the winter they can lose their variation. Because white leaves have no chlorophyll they need as much indirect light as you can give them and the white leaves will often turn brown and die off. Regular fertilizing during the growing season is important to maintain variegation.
