- Opmerking (6427): Bruce Dunstan (2011-03-02) - Hi Derek
I believe it's genetic. I get some very occasionally in seedling batches. Best ones are on strongly barred sp. I'll load an image (Verzonden: brom-l@science.uu.nl) - Opmerking (6427): Uwe (2011-03-07) - See: Steens, A. 2005. Bromeliads for the contemporary garden. ā Timber Press, Portland, Oregon, USA (cover photo and page 149) although the autor is not sure whether it is V. gigantea or V. hieroglyphica.

Vriesea hieroglyphica (Verzonden: brom-l@science.uu.nl) - Opmerking (6427): Wes Schilling (2011-03-07) - I have seen in different families of plants, variegations like this caused by a virus. Any chance this could be caused by a virus??? (Verzonden: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
- Opmerking (6427): Uncle Derek (2011-03-07) - I am pleased with the feed back especially from Uwe regarding the NZ experience. When in NZ for the Bromeliad Conference in 2003 there was a plant called 'Smudge' which was in several gardens. I was Registrar at the time and would not move from my stance that I would wait until it stabilised! I then got a plant of Vr. fenestralis from Victoria, AU, which had the same traits but these disappeared under my growing conditions. I do not foliar feed! We now have a rash of these occurrences. One part of me says they are the same as the hundreds of plants that show variegation but this somehow disappears. I am sure all of you have experienced this. Any other thoughts?
