I bought a philodendron bipennifolium recently and planted it in this planter in our faux rock wall. All of a sudden it's new growth isn't solid green like all the older leaves are. Some of the leaves are spotty which can make me think bugs are at fault but then there's this leaf which is clearly not bugs but very variegated. I might think sport, but this is happening on several stems (possibly all, jury still out) so I ruled out sport. I find it strange that this be a variegated plant that showed no variegation at all when I bought it, but is it possible? Do I have "Splash Gordon"?
