What does page 227 say? And the bottom paragraph of page 94? I've wanted those 2 for a long time but I'm 99% sure I'll never find those. It's still nice to dream though.

Let's see....
Page 227 - "Musashi" It was found in Wakayama. It has a plain, "mameba" (bean leaf) type leaf.
This plant has three leaf features:
1. "Wave" such as "Seikai"
2. "Hiba" such as "Benkeimaru" (page 148)
3. "Konpe" such as "Ushiwakamaru" (page 118)
Subjectively speaking, it belongs to an "odd" group instead of a "pretty" or a "cute" group. This is pretty much a personal preference: like it or not like it. It is very popular in Japan and very limited. It would probably take for a while to be widely available to us.
Page 94 "Naniwajishi Shiro Nakafu"
This is the rare form of "Naniwajishi" with some white spots. When these spots go down to lower leaves, it becomes "Okinajishi" ( unregistered page 178). When those spots are spread around, it is called "Chiyodajishi" (page 32).
Does it make sense? I did not know there are soooooooooooooooooooo many variations.
:whew
