Thanks for your reply. I did have trouble with the size of the image. First time trying to post one. The site only allows 60kb -- not much. No, it hasn't bloomed - that would make things too easy!

This is as close as I could get without my camera going blurry. Couldn't find the macro setting. This should expand ok. Here's a better picture of the possible reversion Here's a picture in context. The foreground one with the "reversion" on left does look more like a different plant. The boundary separation seems definitive from this view. Even a color difference. It didn't look like that so much in person. And the one on the right looks much shorter. Maybe a different cultivar. This is the one on the right:

My contractor came by and before I said a word, he said “you are getting a new counter”. There were too many blemishes and the pic I posted above was a repair done before delivery. They‘ve already ordered new quartz. Worked out nicely, since I was able to clarify what I expect on the edge as well. It pushes the project back a week or so, but it will be right. I’m glad I made a good choice in my GC.

It looks fine. There is no way to lighten that up without ruining it, or replacing it.
