| By what I've read, and what Glen said, some of the variations have morphing capabilities. They can actually change into the other types of growths or variations. Example. The Neo 'Gekkeikan' can under the right conditions, morph into the 'Tenkei' variety.
The 'Gekkeikan' has a stripping pattern on the leaves that's both yellow and green, kinda reminds me of almost like a spider plant. The 'Tenkei' has this same pattern, but a little more different and more striking.
Not Neos will do this. And not all Neos will morph. This is what got me fascinated about this species in general. I've been trying to find out what varieties have this ability, but I guess I'm just going to have to email Dr. Lehr and ask. (There's not a whole lot of info out there, and what there is, it's in Japanese!) This is why I bought a "Gekki" so I could watch it grow and see for myself if it were to ever change.
