I have had variegated Villa Franca for a number of years and have recently managed to find a variegated Eureka.
Do all variegated Eureka have the pinkish flesh or not?
I'm hoping they do as Pink Lemonade Eureka are not for sale here in NZ and it would be nice to get one by default.

All that are available in the trade are pink as far as I know. The first one on the list above is not available.

Well theres 3 very tiny fruit on it so it will be great if they do turn pink. I will just have to be patient.

That's a very beautiful tree. I'm going to be getting a varigated Eureka (pink or regular) soon too. Wink
