OK, here's a dumb newbie question.... is it possible for variegated brugs to revert to solid green? I've been growing brugs for 4 years now but last year was the first time I tried a variegated one. Snowbank was not exactly a stellar performer... it grew beautifully at first, but when the weather turned hot the edges of the leaves got scorched brown. Then it became an insect salad bar - eaten up by little green caterpillars and flea beetles. My 'plain green leaved' brugs suffer no significant insect damage. Anyway, I was not kind to Snowbank last fall and really didn't care if I lost it or not. It did come back from the roots though - I moved the sprouts to a pot to try to get them to grow faster. As you can see from the picture, it's growing very well but there is no sign of variegation. I am sure this is (was) Snowbank. Will it regain its variegation or has it permanently reverted to green? Thanks for your help!
