B-boat

Remembered seeing this thing before. Found a pic of it in the Gardenweb forum posted by eggo, Mar 23, 07. It's a variegated Nam Wah.



Check out the same green/white radial pattern running straight out from midrib to leaf edge. Ae Ae is splotchy, like an artist's pallet. Also has same pinkish midrib. My Ae Ae doesn't have either of these characteristics.



Print pics of each and go beat on the nursery - good luck.

It's is so frustrating to deal with nursery folks that know only how to sell plants. Just bought a Jaboticaba tree from a longtime nursery family and they were surprised to see the list of different varieties of Jabbo's. He said "uhhh....I thought there was only one kind".
