Very interesting when a Mom Leaf Sports different babies !

Dunedin, FL(Zone 10b)

I find it very interesting and fun when as Mom leaf can give you two or three different looking plants :))
They say one in every hundred leaves put down Sport .
In another group a girl posted interesting pictures of a leaf that sported .

WOW! I am surprised- I would have expected some variations but wouldn't have expected that last one! I guess it depends on which plants were the parents, right? or am I totally off?

It is neat. I've had it happen several times but I don't think with such a hugh difference.
This happened to a couple plants I gave Laurie . I had the baby that grew with them same Mom leaf as the plant I gave her. side by side. She only had them a few feeks and her's bloomed different than mine !
I like when they Sport and give me a fun surprise flower. Even better if I got a lot of Chimera surprise flowers :))
