The leaf is long, sharply lobed and held upright, matte rather than glossy, with venation so pale against the blade that it reads as drawn on.

On a blade this dark the effect is exactly what the name suggests — and unlike sectorial variegation, speckling tends to distribute more evenly across new growth rather than throwing whole white leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 26px;\"\u003eWhat you're buying\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe exact specimen in the photos.
