Hello! My Mother and I got cuttings from the same wandering jew plant. My plant is all purple and hers is green on top with lovely stripes and underneath purple. What is the reason for these different colors from the same plant? Thanks for your help! Maria
This probably explains it better than I could. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimera_(plant) In depth explanation. http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/tisscult/chimeras/chimeralec/chimeras.html
Thank you for sending those explanations. I thought that the soil we planted the shoots in or the sunlight made a difference, but maybe not............ Take care! Maria
