During our time gardening we encounter various new or strange plants, mutant plants, weird but strangely beauty. I called these plant "The X-Plants"… Some of this plant stay with us, but many disappears, without ever shared with others… I believes, other member have had this encounters too, something weird, or something new.

Few of this plants are my encounter in the wilds, or a sport in the garden, so it is exclusively in my collection, but most are plants I bought, or was shared by friends, it might be something usual enough for others, but it is certainly new for me.

Just to day, I found two new plants while hiking on rural area of my town,
So… I think, I would like to start a thread showing those X-Plants, in case in the future these plants disappear, at least it has been shared.

I would love to invite others to join and share their mutant plants here… please share yours too, anything you find strange or "New to You", …

Here is a Colocasia esculenta I just found to day, from a distance it was just like normal plant, but up-close you will see it is variegated, It looks like 'Lemon Lime Gecko' Colocasia, but with obscure variegation, the stem is also striped…
