I think it's just reverting, Monica. Have you ever seen a Hindu Rope revert? It's the goofiest thing ever (but also kind of cool). I think Denise has mentioned that she has a non-dimply Chelsea, too.

I had one that was gorgeous with lots of dimples, cupping and a pretty green color. Sadly, I lost it when I had "something" going around affecting a lot of my plants.

what two Carnosa varieties make the Chelsea? I'll still be keeping my eyes open for a "good"one.
