Yep, I have seen red coloration on the edges of new leaves on lots of different types of variegated plants, including AeAe. But as you state, it usually fades with age. Its sort of a 'protective' coloration produced on the newest leaves and most often comes from being grown in full sun or at least very very bright light. Im still hopeful that this coloration is retained on the larger more adult plants which could indicate a different variety. Thanks so much for your perseverance! Ive written a message to this seller asking for information on the differences, if any. We'll see how much is understood concerning the language barriers................always a somewhat dis-heartening attempt! (I need a Thai translater!) Agtree is probably the source where you obtained yours........ sorry it croaked!!!!
