Okay raising this from the dead.
@purpleinopp did we ever decide that the variegated Calissia form is bigger than the non? The variegated one I received from Lin is still much bigger than my non variegated one.
The variegated purple heart I am having trouble keeping it from reverting to just purple. I discovered this summer that I have to grow it in total shade to keep it from reverting to plain purple.
Found this at Plant Delight.
Description
This cultivar has been around for years, but our most vigorous form came from Yucca Do Nursery. The unstable variegation pattern (comes and goes on a whim) results in leaves that range from solid purple (typical) to all variations of pink striping. Each 2' wide x 10" tall clump is topped in late summer with small lavender flowers, but the foliage is the reason to grow this cutie.
