Hey, I was wondering what the scientiftic name of the tiger plant is? I'm looking for the scientific name of the plant that has green leaves but has yellow green stripes in it also. I'm not really sure if it's scientific name is Sanchezia speciosa because the plant that I have has a dominantly yellow green stripes in it? If anyone can tell me the biology of the tiger plant, that would also be most appreciated... :D
What is the scientific name of the Tiger plant?
