This is an av I bought recently. I picked it because it had such giant star shaped blooms. At that time the leaves were solid green.
Now it is sending up new leaves. The new leaves are variegated(like they were supposed to be), but the flowers are tiny.
My question is...if I propagate the solid green leaves off this plant, will the new plants have forever reverted back to solid green, or will they be able to be variegated, too?
In order to keep the variegation, do I have to propagate only those leaves showing good variegation, to start with?...if so, should I prick off and trash the solid green ones?
oops: edited to say this one is 'Pretty Miss Kelly'
Here is a close up showing new growth and new blooms:
