In my terms stabile variegation means that once it shows the
variegation it keeps it till the plant dies.
Well I see that there are misnamings in Araceae too, but since
I'll be a horticultural engineer soon I used to it. Since we have a plant shop I
even less care about plant names, cause so many customers just buy colors, and
shapes and they really do not care about the plat's name. Even when they have
problems they never or seldom mention the botanical name of the plant, the
variety name is even rarer. Of course for myself I like to keep plant names up
to date as possible.
For Xanthosoma you can see a picture attached. I hope next
spring we'll be able to buy from a real tropical supplyer from the edible
stock.

You may also see a nice Anthurium from Andreanum Grp.And a
variegated Alocasia. I'm not sure is it correctly named, the wholesaler told
that's it's name. Could it be an Alocasia wendtii form?
Thank you for the posts and news.
Bye,
Jani

exactly is meant by stabilization? Do you mean, thesame pattern on
each leaf? Or do you mean the plant neverloses the
variegation? Here in Hawaii, Epipremnum aureum inthe naturalized
state always retains the pattern of thecultivar 'Aureum', never reverting
to all green.Also, by variegation, do you only mean a broken pattern,
asin the aforementioned example, or do you mean anycontrasting color
pattern? Because as we know, there arespecies in which contrasting
veins (Philodendron gloriosum)or dots (Zantedeschia aethiopica) are the
norm. Thelast-named is tuberous, as are Caladiums.Jason
