Chris.....Does my Patriot have it?

Hi
I was taking pics tonight and took one of my Patriot which I bought in 2001 and I noticed a few green spots on some leaves. I sure hope it doesn't have it.

Hmmm....are you referring to the area on the left side of that leaf??? Hard for me to say since I am in no way an expert, but the Hosta Journal article lists 'Patriot' as being "moderately susceptible" to HVX. Let's see what the experts think about this one.

No, I was worried about the darker spots on the green part of that leaf.

Must be my monitor image then, because I don't see anything unusual.

Debbie,

I see what you are talking about, but it does not look like the virus does in my Striptease. The lines run down along the veins instead of moving to the side like yours. I don't know if there is anything wrong, Chris will tell you, but it does look different than what I see on my Striptease.

Thanks everyone!

Chris, I was so worried. I saw those green spots on the leaf that I haver noticed before and I thought...well u know.

I had taken the pic using a higher resolution on my camera so it picked up those dark green little circles.

Thanks again everyone!

Debbie
