Ok, this is odd. Weird leaf again

9 years ago

I've had weird mutated, damaged or bug a causing weird leaves. I posted a pic on one of my old posts of a distorted leaf..This one

well, last night I was looking at this pic and noticed that the baby leaf looked kinda weird too. I went back to look today and look what I found. It grew and looks just like the larger leaf. This is so cool. I now think these are mutations. Don't think a bug would damage it in the exact same way.

of course, I know they don't keep going like this. Its happened before to this exact pubicalyx splash. It had 5 semi heart leaves in the past.

That is a common mutation, it seems. My PNG-SV-419 had little leaves growing out of the gland area near the petiole. It did not affect the plant in any way, and does not seem to indicate any underlying issue. Just seems to be a random thing.

My elliptica grew a whole vine with tiny leaves too. They literally look like turtle shells. The rest of the plant is normal and thriving.

These are a couple of ingrassata leaves with 2 points.
