My leaves aren't huge this year, but makes up for it in the markings. Many leaves are fully blotched rather than flecked. I'm growing it with about 6 hours sun (assuming it's shining) with shade from around 12pm to 3pm.

Fed twice a week with 24-8-16 with seaweed extract :wink:

Those markings are beautiful. Wonderful how each leaf can be different. Mine barely survived winter.

I think regular use of seaweed extract enhances colour :wink:

It certainly was a weird winter, as I lost every last Diamond Head and Black Beauty, but Mojito just gritted it's teeth.
