I am sorry to be so tardy in replying to this thread, but I am in my busy time with starter plants and the season for the Christmas Trees Farm is getting into high gear since we open the day after Thanksgiving. To top it all off, my computer decided to not function properly and after about four days and a two hour visit from the technician, I am back in business. Thank God.

Now to talk about the Hawaiian or as it is also known as 'Golden Glow'. I am relatively new at propagating these because I found it difficult to find the plants that were actually Hawaiian. I do not have a time line for these plants. They do their own little thing and when it happens I seldom write it down. However, the plantlets look like this when removed and put in water to root, look like this:
The variegated part is on the creamy white side with some turning to champagne color.

This is a rooted plantlet that was planted 8/28/2014.

This is a young stock plant with her first plantlet (which should be removed now) and a second shoot showing signs of more plantlets coming.

As they mature in pots they eventually will turn green with a faint champagne stripe in the center that may or may not fade also. If the plantlets are left on the plants they too will turn green. This plant has many different combinations going on throughout its lifetime. I am sorry to be so vague with a 'time line' on it but seems I just never wrote any or that down. I have sent your post to a friend who has been raising Hawaiians for awhile and when he responds I will sent you his answer.

I hope this helps you in some small way. Have a wonderful day and enjoy your spiders.
