    According to the Wikipedia article fascination can be caused by random mutations, bacterial or other infections as well as environmental stresses. So I’d say it totally depends. Only genetic mutations should make the plant give this characteristic to its offspring.

    Most plants that I’ve seen with this characteristic are also not uniformly affected by it.
