HVX?

Post by govgirl75 »

Could you take a look at these pix and let me know your opinion as to whether the plant is infected with hvx? It is 4 years old, this will be it's 5th season. We had a cold, wet spring with frosts and a freeze.
Thanks for your help.
Gloria

Hi Gloria,

This is another example of spring dessication burn. Nothing to worry about, it is common in the yellow tissue of the sieboldianas and many other plants, especially during cold springs.

Have a good night.
