I know it happens, I have done and it and have seen it happen but I'm unsure why exactly so would appreciate help please.
I'm talking about sansevieria, I have propagated the variegated form and now have small pure green pups emerging. I knew the new growth would revert back to the natural colouration but can't find why exactly. If I left the mother plant to grow naturally then I get copies of mother growing connected by the rhizome. Isn't this still vegative reproduction as would be a leaf cutting? If so why the difference. I'm probably being thick.
