Hi Lillyb, I have a large one of these (came with the house) and the prior owner warned that you need to prune any non-variegated foliage or the whole plant will lose it's variegation. It is one of my favourites, you will love it in bloom.

OK this sounds stupid, but what's non variegated mean?

Those are the leaves that are entirely green with no patterning. Not stupid a stupid question at all.
