I posted this a little bit ago, this is the sport from Peachs & Cream. http://davesgarden.com/t/374219/ I measured one of the leaves today! 18" and still growing! The leaves are becoming more serated. It's also sending more suckers from the base of the plant. Can't wait for the bloom.

*The plant is a bit wilted as it needed water*

WOW!! Whatever it turns out to be, hope it's not like a St. Bernard, and need lots of FOOD!!!

Can we see a pic of your P. & Cream? Mine has beautiful green/yellow/white leaves. Looks like yours' offspring got mixed up with some bum?

Here is a close up of a leaf. I'm hoping this P & C and not maya? For the life of me, I can't remember what the bloom looks like. This was one of my first brugs I recd. in trade about three years ago.

Yes, your pic of P & Cream looks just like mine, some leaves have yellow/green, new growth in the center. Can't figure out why your sport is green leaves, mine has variegated leaves whenever it has a new shoot.

VERY INTERESTING.............

I might put a pic of mine on here, DH is taking it now.
