Eeeeeh I'd disagree. This is not a houseplant, but Physostegia virginiana 'variegata', besides the variegated foliage, has pale pink flowers as opposed to the species plant's bubblegum pink, and it's a lot less blocky when massed. There are plenty of other examples too: Salix intergra 'hakuro nishiki', Aspidistra elatior 'variegata', or Cornus alternifolia 'argentea'.

I agree with you on most of this list. I do think pink princess should've been on this list, haha it is stupidly overhyped, and like the dishwater variegation you mentioned, I think most pink princesses have a dirty or muddy look to them and for the price they're going for right now, I'd rather wait. 1. Paraiso Verde: I agree, I've never liked the variegation (sure, there's a couple leaves where I"m like ooh, nice) but for the most part not worth spending the money for and harder to take care of than jose buono or giganteum variegata which are much prettier in my opinion. 2. Caramel Marble: It's a lovely plant but yes so overpriced and if we were to base it on that, I prefer the golden dragon variegata 3. Strawberry Shake: Yep, juvenile leaves are ugly AF and unfortunately that's the only way you're gonna get a hold of these plants in auctions and sales right now, as small 1-2 leaf cuttings, and apparently it's really slow to grow and root too, so not worth my while 4. Adansonii Variegata: I love this plant, yes it is overpriced and there's a lot in circulation in Europe (don't think so as much anywhere else in the world), but that is due to certain people hoarding on a certain plant shop's restock of them selectively, and those private sellers growing and propagating and trying to make 1-2k on a 1-2 leaf cutting, and that's how it's become a lot more prevalent in UK/EU. Hopefully will go down in price in time. 5. Mint anything: I love mint too but nothing is ever truly mint, and it's honestly down to an individual plant's genetics that, as you said, may push a minty looking leaf every now and again under certain conditions, but it isn't stable. Also the adansonii mint is an Indonesian form I'm pretty sure, and it sells for like $15 there but is going for over $1,000 anywhere else in the world, which makes me suss if it is natural or a virus. 6. Strawberry Ice: there are so many prettier syngoniums as you said. This one just looks like baby's vomit to me, end of. Haha! 7. Ace of Spades: love this plant too but not the price and glad to hear it was in TC so hopefully prices will come down to like EU clarinervium levels in a few years! 8. Black Cardinal Variegata: Haven't seen many of these for sale in EU, not my cup of tea, but I remember seeing a whole batch of variegated philodendron in Asia all being listed over the four-figure mark easily (black cardinal, imperial green variegata etc...) 9. Variegated Tetrasperma: The price of these is shocking, I'd rather get a Spiritus Sancti, thanks! Haha! Hopefully this will also be TC on Thai Constellation levels in the next few years and become more accessible. 10. Cream Splash: There's so many variations of this that I can't keep up now (there's a stripe one too), honestly I prefer my plain old brasil. I would love a big bushy cream splash, but never see any for sale and would hate to see what they go for if a 1-2 leaf cutting sells for about $60.

But the syngonium strawberry ice is sooo gorgeous 😅 I think it's the deep red... mahogany like leaves suddenly having big portions of pink and white that got me addicted to them. They just have such a depth and complexity to their foliage (crumpled yet straight? Colored yet not?) compared to other more 2D-ish syngoniums... I have 3 pots 😅

Your Absolutely right.. Those plants are gorgeous but as of now the prices are unreasonably high.. So, I will wait for the prices to go down.. Which I'm sure they will. 😊😊😊😊😊

I might be in the minority but I don’t particularly like variegated plants. I like plants that look lush and verdant. I find the white looks too man made.

Same. Like while everyone is going crazy over the fact that Thai Constellation Monstera will be readily available through Costa Farms next year, I’m perfectly content with my basic green baby Monstera Deliciousa that’s putting out its first fenestrated leaves.

I have to agree to be honest. Nearly all of my favourite plants aren't even variegated!

Thanks, Kaylee! As others have said, your opinion is yours and any opinion is taken with a grain of salt, so to speak....I just enjoy listening to you! I have a “pink syngonium” I bought for 7 USD at a local shop and love it more than paying $$$$ for those special pink ones.

The variegated adonsonii are impossible to find in America even on trade groups and Etsy shops! If your lucky to find one it certainly is in the 4 digits. I’ve wanted one for a very long time but have been holding off for the prices to drop

Totally agree! IMO plants over hyped here in NZ, string of turtles, hoya Indian rope and now veragated monstera all have ridiculous prices paid for them. Like you say; just wait until T.C'd and the market is flooded and the price will plummet. Someone paid 5k for a hoya and 6.5k for monstera

Admittedly, I'm no plant expert in Indiana, USA, but I've never heard of most of these plants and would never pay over $ 50 for a plant unless it cured cancer. Enjoyed your video. Thanks since I'm not going out now.
