I chose a twelve of the same flower on USC's campus to observe and find differences. Here's what I came up with... (excuse the picture quality)!
1. Some were five-petaled, some were four-petaled.
2. Solid colored stems.
3. Gradient (green to pink) stems.
4. Light pink leaves.
5. Hot pink leaves.
6. Gradient (dark to light) leaves.
7. Dead leaves turned brown.
8. Buds are bright green.
9. Some leaves were almost white.
10. Most are about 1 inch in diameter at full grown.
11. Un-developed only about 1/2 inch.
12. Dead ones lose leaves, most had two or three.
13. The stem attached to the branch length differs.
14. Some leaves have cusp at the end, some are rounded.
15. Concave (almost rolled-looking) leaves on newer flowers.
16. Convex leaves on fully grown.
17. Some middles are green.
18. Some middles have bright green dots.
19. Few have anther stemming from the middle.
20. Small, bright pink veins in the white leaves.
21. Soft to touch.
22. Dead leaves rough, crunchy.
23. Mature leaves flatten out.
24. Often found in bunches of 8 or more.
25. Some grew singular.
