Variegation of various types generally pop up in any type of plant given enough time. Some growers may increase the chance of inducing variegation with harsh chemicals but given time such random sports do occur. IF the variegation is attractive, sufficiently stable, and the parent plant is strong enough these variegates are propagated and distributed. There is a cultivar of Thanksgiving cactus known as 'Madame Butterfly' that may be found, and probably others too.

I purchased mine on E-Bay; Schlumbergera MADAME BUTTERFLY Variegated

Placed in full sun, they do turn all green but back in a shady spot they return to variegated. Tried starting some cuttings but they just rotted for me. Never flowered for me also.

Oooh, I've got 'Mdm Butterfly', bought years and years ago, did not know it has a variegated form! Now wishing it will try hard to variegate for me, LOL...

Nomen_nudum, do you have a photo of a variegated 'Gold Charm' in flower ?

Just noticed someone in my area is selling this as 'Variegated Schlumbergera' is this true or just stress?

Then someone on eBay is selling some too

This just looks like stress.. But I could be wrong!

Alex, it looks chlorotic.

do you have a photo of a variegated 'Gold Charm' in flower ? Not this season can and will certainly try for a later flowering comparison.

this is a flower from Madame Butterfly variegate , To the best of my relocation at last view flowering from Cv. Golden Charm has wider darker pink strips( nearing red) and narrower white strips on a shorter and less round ( smaller) flower. In respect to the bigger size over all size of Madame butterfly what you see in pic is one flower fits in three fingers with ease while Cv Golden would only cross two and half Meaning Golden charm would provide a tighter shorter bloom per say. Slight variations of leaf coloring and flower size ( in respect) indicate a hand helped cross or hybridization.

Alex Yours does look a little depleted. See also pics from Stush 3rd comment on this thread and note the consistency of the leaf coloring. I also provided some leaf close ups of a variegated TC that you can use for reference.

Lets call the next pic you see #4 ( on reserve)

this is #4 today

The same #4 less than or about a month ago. Observing the coloring of the younger leaf growth that starts pinker in color becomes more white as it grows ( as seen on right leaf of #4) while the lesser pink hues of leaf color on new growth produces a greener coloring as seen on left of #4.
