    I was wondering if anyone else growing Milky way trail (the semi miniature) has had any changes in the bloom color?

    I have been growing this plant for awhile, always bloomed white. I gave a cutting to another member and hers changed from white to light pink. She said she gave a cutting of it (after it had grown out to a bigger plant) to her daughter and her daughters blooms white. She gave me a pink cutting and comparing it to my milky way, the leaves look the same.

    Okay, I've been using tomato fertilizer and one of the cutting I took of my milkyway trail ... well rooted now has bloomed white with some pink...not chimera...too bad. A couple years ago I used tomato fertilizer and I did have some plants bloom colors change some, so that might be with this rooted cutting. I think I will not use it on my white milky way!...I do want it to stay white!

    Just wondering!...tish
