Before you buy

Albo sinuata is the value driver; the aurea is scarcer still but priced similarly.

  • Sinuata stays compact — a cheap 'sinuata' that looks long and thin may be a mislabeled relative.
  • Check albo balance: its thick leaves can hide unstable all-white sections that won't sustain the plant.

Prices vary a lot by country — tiers show relative cost, not exact amounts.
