yes seller's on Ebay use it a lot "Tommy Lou" or "Champion" they also use rare a lot,
but the question was is there a difference between
Champion and Mosaic variegation ,
Answer yes
Mosaic variegation is used in FC and you can search
for it as its a type quite rare of variegation;
Ethel Champion first has the yellow crown variegation
and people will reference plants with variegation like her plants as Champion foliage. but it's a reference of
like and can not search for foliage with "Champion:
as an example i used
Plain and Fancy (2756) 11/13/1975 (E. Champion) Double pink ruffled star. Variegated, plain, quilted. Large


Now Tommie Lou foliage is named after the plant
Tommie Lou (1744) 10/25/1967 (T. Oden) Double white/light orchid center. Variegated dark green, plain, quilted. Large

When plants have variegation like this plant they will
Tommie Lou foliage and not often,
