And that is the reason why I colllect Neofinetia. You really have to learn each variety in order to provide the right conditions to achieve the proper form for the plant. You just taught me the difference between this plant and a Setzuzen regarding variegation. (Thanks Ryan). I was puzzled that my Setzusen was turning all kinds of variegation and my Kinkujaku was turning greener! Now I've moved the Kinkujaku to a brighter location. I hope it gets that golden coloration like Jayfar's new acquisition.

Interesting, per the description, that the variegation only occurs on the leaf surface. As a result it appears, at least from what I see in the SE photos, that the undersides of even the most yellowed leaves appear green.
Hopefully I'll be able to provide sufficient light to maintain the variegation and add it to new leaves as they age as well.

I find it "most appreciable when plant have more than 2 features." I was at a gallery opening for a really good friend of mine who is paper cut artist in the Japanese style. She had a paper cutting that used fine paper cuts across a beautifully subtle, mottled paper, yielding two points of view. Upon viewing her work, I heard myself say: "Janice (she's the artist) your use of the knife and arranging your paper cut to enable two points of view is highly appreciable."

Heh, Jay remembers, "All your base belong to us."
I would love to get that Shishedo Sedirea japonica perfume. Perhaps Kristen and Dr. Glen could import some for us to purchase.

Oops. I was thinking not, but to be sure I've edited/deleted portions of 2 previous posts of mine. My sincere apologies to anyone who found my remarks offensive.

Jay-- I was examining my Kinku-jaku last night and can report the same re the variegation on the top of the leaf and very little on the bottom-- it rounds the edge of the leaf but then the underside of the leaf is pretty much a solid green.
Speaking of variegation-- found a fan on my Fugaku that is entirely white. not a single bit of green in the form of a stripe or dot.
