Check this beauty out! Mother Nature is cool. Now if this would only happen to some of my corals.

Has this plant does this before? I'm wondering if it was bred for this characteristic. At least when dealing with the botanical family Gesneriaceae (includes african violets, lipstick vines, goldfish plants, cape primrose, etc.) the streaking and spotting is referred to as "fantasy," and is selectively bred for. I imagine it might be chosen for in hibiscus as well. Very nice bloom.
 
this plant has never done it before. just being the reefer that I am, i immediately thought it looked "grafted"
