The variegation can be lost what happens is green plants are stronger growers and when left out side over winters the white streaked forms get over taken by the solid green leaves. I have had plants out side and inside and can tell a major difference over the years. It is believed by many that stuttgart is a variegated form of Canna Omega that was discovered in a botanical garden in stuttgart germany. All I can say is that some forms are much better than others and cutting the good sections away and repotting them will yeld even better variegations. Though solid whites will not grow. Good luck.
