📌 Note

The pattern, intensity of the variegation, and proportion between the green and cream areas may naturally vary from one leaf to another and from one plant to another.

The leaves may have small spots, scratches, folds, dry edges, or other aesthetic imperfections resulting from growth, handling, transportation, or adaptation to new environmental conditions. These aspects do not normally affect the plant's viability.

Each plant may have its own shape, crown density, and leaf distribution, so the plant received may differ slightly from the presentation photographs.
