Podophyllum problem
« on: May 08, 2019, 03:53:08 PM »
We have a few of our hybrids showing this strange pattern.  Do you suppose it's a defiency, a virus or a potential breakthrough we should be watching?  Ken was going to bin it, he tossed the others.

Well, there  is a  "hunger" from  collectors for  "odd" plants - and  with a  bit  of  luck, your pale  podo may just be  hungry!!  Fingers  crossed!

It's had the same feeding regime as the others.  Think the bins awaits its arrival.

John,
It couldn't be frost damage, could it?
Just clutching at straws for you,so that you don't need to bin them....

Carolyn - Thanks but they all wintered in the grow house and were put out early, none have frost damage.  The afflicted is down to one pot now so not a great loss.

It looks a bit like iron chlorosis but if you say it got the same treatment like all the others....maybe the bin is the safest way.

All the others are so cute! Hope to have an 'army' of my own soon. All planted in the ground last summer are up and few will even flower :)
Thank you!

Hi John,  I think you are correct to suspect viral.
Certainly pathological.
Best to be safe.
