Mine grown from seed all have the lighter, longer leaves; as well as the light yellow ones which came from Telos.  I have memories of some in a pot at my Mom's years ago which were the shiny dark green like the picture.. 
Until now I thought the difference was caused by environmental conditions...
it’s a good find.. wish I had some like that...
