Many years ago I bought a variegated Sansevieria 'Masons Congo' over the
years it has reverted back then last year put out a strange yellow leaf
with green edge it is also dwarf by masoniana standards. I almost lost the
plant three years ago but managed to keep it going. At the moment it is
hiding in my jungle of Sansevierias If I can dig it out I will take a
picture tomorrow.
