This Etsy seller has been absolutely amazing bless her, sent me 3 pictures of like 8 plants,, took up a bunch of her time…
I’m set on having one of these two yet still in the picking process, may I get your votes? 👀

First 3 pics are plant A and last 3 are plant B

I love the sectorial variegation of A but I also love the marble of B!!!!! So please help me out 🤣🤣🤣

    Do they all have compromised (submerged) petioles? If so, I wouldn’t purchase any because of risk of losing those leaves and it says something about the experience and knowledge of the grower.

    4 and 5 spark joy. You should definitely buy both so they can be friends

    I would pick B. The variegation all over looks really pretty.

    A is also pretty, but the large patches of variegation can start to look really terrible if they brown; silica supplements can help that but not sure if it will completely prevent browning.

    Personally I really like A. Silica and good lighting and feeding helps with the browning, also good stability. But yeah you already have momsteras so you probably know that 🤣

    I’d say if you’re also looking at getting a Thai con, I’d pick one to have big variegation and one to be more speckly.

    I personally like the big splashy look so I got a Thai with the big splotches since I wanted to not get an abo. But the half moon albos are making that difficult fr 🤣

    B is probably far less likely to brown off tho so i understand fully why ppl pick those style. You could consider just flipping a coin. If you’re disappointed then you know what you wanted deep down 😊

    My honest first thought:
    I love the way plant A looks alittle better But…
    Plant B looks healthier & evened out more if that makes sense.
    I’m biased tho bc I don’t have any plants that have that 1/2 n 1/2 look like plant A
    I guess I’m no help bc both plants are beautiful, so I see ur dilemma. Maybe tell her “surprise me!” 😆
