Dioscorea "Crystal"
Variegated Dioscorea Garrettii "Crystal" currently (incorrectly) also sold under the names "Transversa Pink Albo" and "Transversa Albo." I'm not going to get into it too in-depth here (there's a blog on this coming later) but there seems to be a lot of misinformation about this plant circulating at the moment. Broad-strokes: Dioscorea Garrettii (native to Thailand) and Dioscorea Transversa (native to Austrailia) are not the same plant. However, what you're commonly seeing sold as a "Dioscorea Transversa Pink Albo" are actually mislabeled variegated Dioscorea Garrettii. It's possible there is a variegated Transversa species circulating out there somewhere, but none of the "Pink Albo" I've seen posted to date are it. A beautiful vining plant native to the Indian Subcontinent through parts of southwestern China. Variegation can appear as speckled, marbled or sectoral, first coming in a deep shade of pink which slowly fades down a creamy color and then, eventually, fully white. Mother-plant was purchased from The Plant House Recommended potting mix: CPK Potting Mix Recommended semi-hydro medium: Lechuza Pon
