I don't usually do this, but Alexander asked so nicely.
Dear Mr.Ouer,
I brought back a few hundred Sabal domingensis seeds from a trip to Samana, Dominican Republic several years ago. I managed to grow about 200 seedlings and gave most away as gifts.Of those two hundred one would appear to be variegated. I stepped it up along with about a dozen others(I have a very small yard in the Keys) and I planted it in my garden about five years ago and I've been keeping an eye on it since...It is a beautiful happy specimen and has remained variegated and not "grown out of it"...My question is this a common occurrence or do I have something interesting/rare?? I will attach a few photos and would love to hear back from you on this. Thank you so much.
