The First Green and White Wasp plant came out a couple years ago and the only one to this day. It is by David Senk. David is very famous for some of the very best unique wasp plants. He does use the Vintage " Dates" wasp as parent so a lot of his have bustled foliage and traits of the older wasp plants only David's Wasp are so facinating and different they bring extremly big bucks and only sold on Ebay. I paid $ 20.00 for a leaf set of this plant. The gave me seven nice babues which each sold from $ 20.00 to $ 30.00 each.
Here is a link to the Violet Lab. It has a few of David's fascinating plants that he only sells on Ebay.

I have grown several of them only to sell or give away. I have one friend in her 80's I send her boxes of plants for postage. She got around five boxes this year. She loves Wasp plants. I have sent her about 12 rare wasp plants that could have sold for high $$$ but she loves Wasp plants so I send her the very best. She has to have large plants no leaves or she kills them. She is special mostly home bound taking care of her sick husband and growing African violets is her one joy :))
This is Davids Green wasp a photo he sent me.
