the plant of good and evil

one of my violets is "sporting" -- a genetic mutant where it is actually two plants, refusing to continue to be cross-bred. it started just before halloween, and in my home-office geekery, it continues to fascinate me. it is divided down the middle, with dark purple stemed-leaves producing rich purple flowers along one side, and bright green stemed ones pouring out a range of blooms from pale white to pinwheel. i'll post more interesting photos soon, as soon as the rain stops.
