Chocolate Dancer

[ScotTi]

Chocolate Dancer is said to be a sport of Miss Andrea that has slightly darker markings on the leaves. At times I think it is just another name stuck on the Miss Andrea and other times I think not. The winter and spring months the colors darken more on the C. Dancer than I observe on Miss Andrea.

That looks very different than Miss Andrea to me. I have a lot of Miss Andrea - so I hope I get one of those sports someday. I like it a lot. But so far I don't think I have one. I'll have to give all of mine a closer look.

It looks quite different from my Miss Andrea as well. The Miss Andrea in my garden have more cream and less green. Chocolate Dancer looks like a nice addition to the Miss Andrea derived cultivars.

I will update the photos of C. Dancer in the summer when the colors look like the Miss Andrea. Took this photo of Miss Andrea today.

That matches up with what my Miss Andrea looks like. It will be interesting to see how Chocolate Dancer develops.
