The plants I have the most of in my collection are dracaenas, and when you have a lot of something there's bound to be anomalies. This is the first batch of pictures of dracaena mutations.
The first picture is a Dracaena Dorado that has yellow margins on the leaves instead of the chartreuse margins that the plant is known for. This is not due to lighting, because it has stayed consistent under various conditions.

The first picture is from mid summer, but in the fall the plant did something weird and sent up two new shoots from the tip. If you look closely there's two of them in the center of the photo.

When the two shoots grew out one maintained the yellow margin mutation while the other reverted to Dorado with the the chartreuse margins. After this photo was taken I removed the reversion to maintain the mutation. Hopefully it will stay true to form.

One of the variegated compactas mentioned in earlier posts stopped growing a few months ago and when it started up again it produced a mutation with half of the leaves having extra white pigment.

The next two photos are both from the same plant, one being a side view and one a top view. This is a Dracaena Jade Jewel mutation. The plant lost all of the colored streaking in the center of the leaf and is now only white and half of the plant no longer twists. The plants leaves are also more upright now.

The following two pictures are mutations of a Dracaena Warneckii. One is growing out of the base and the other is the top of the plant.
