Re: HVX ???
The first and last pics (same leaf?) look as though they might be, but the others are near the vein but not right along it. When did this start to show? Has the plant been under stress? I think I'd like to hear what Chris says.

Hello,
Sorry I missed this posting earlier. Yes, these pictures look like virus. You can even see some of the light veins developing on the newer leaves too. Will be interested to hear what the nursery finds after they test it.

Re: HVX ???
Hello,
I agree w/ a virus. I first thought, early stages of tobaco rattle virus. On the other hand, I have seen hvx come in many forms and looks. Remember in conclusion, the Agli test trips only test for one particular virus. They have at least three individual tests for different viruses; the most common ones associated w/ hosta and other plants.
Good Luck,
Rick
