The elongated leaves feature bright lime to golden-yellow centers contrasted by deep green margins, creating a vivid, sunrise-like effect. Its compact growth habit and bold coloration make it a standout choice for collectors seeking ornamental foliage. Due to natural variations in color, not all plants will have the same color or variegation. Care Guide Light: Bright, indirect light to maintain variegation. Avoid direct sun which can burn leaves.
