Maranta leuconeura 'Kerchoveana'

One of the babies are turning with pink and red splashes! I'm assuming it's happening because of sun stress... she's very healthy and producing more variegated leaves. I think i like it! #variegated-maranta #maranta-leuconeura

Lovely plant. Mine has the pink variegation too. The pink is even on the new unfurling leaves. Very cool 💚🤍💗

@hkyfvr lol Diane, just when I think I'm super cool lol 😎 😅 is it from the sun or just a random mutation? Did you notice they are selling variegated marantas now? Just put it in the sun and let it mature! Thought I was cool with that too 🤣

Hi Candace. I got mine back in the early Winter and I had not seen a variegated one before that and have not seen any since in our area. The pink appeared on mine right after I got it. Mine was several feet from an east facing window so I don’t think it was from the sun. More of the new leaves have the pink in them now. 🤷‍♀️ I love the new variegation. 💗

@hkyfvr I've had mine for a couple years. Bought as a regular green maranta. A year ago or more it started producing variegation, which I posted on here for documentation. Just this spring the pink is coming out on the new baby offshoots. Mine is in a west window. In my search of new and unique plants I'm seeing ppl selling variegated marantas, the same thing that you and I have for higher prices. Maybe this plant mutates with maturity and sun exposure? Regardless, it's fun to watch!

She's been variegating herself, multiple stems and leaves! So excited! not sure I've seen this, has anyone else?

She's about 2 years old... I broke a teenie tiny stem and stuck it in soil in a new pot... those are coming up all variegated. Feeling so blessed! Lol
