Horticulture vocabulary: sport & cultivar
If a mutation gives a visibly different feature, it is called a sport. If so desired, a sport may be bred to make its own plant, called a cultivar. In this photo: actually this is a reversed example – this pure green pothos vine is the genetically original plant from the marble queen cultivar. I’m going to take a cutting to create a completely pure green plant! #pothosmarblequeen #pothos #houseplants #indoorplants #houseplantsofinstagram #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantsarefriends #plantlove #plantlife #plantsofinstagram #plantstagram #botanical #botany #greenery #greenthumb #instaplants #foliage #leaflove #leaf #urbanjunglebloggers #jungalowstyle #plantparenthood #plants
