Question Is this really Aloe arborescens variegata?

Is this really Aloe arborescens variegata? I don't see the variegation? Looks like it is light pigment. How do these plants get variegation anyhow. Does it occur naturally?

Looks like Aloe arborescens, but I wouldn't call it "variegata"....
more like a near albino sport with just enough chlorophyll to give it a slight green coloring...

P.S. or it could be a normal green one that has been really starved to give it the light green color...

Default Very nice!

Variegated Arborescens is exactly what I wanted! Variegated Arborescens is what I ordered. This sweet mystery plant is what I got?
