UCDavis Ischia Black 2017

This is an Ischia Black from UCDavis that I started from a cutting in 2013.  I has a small section of leaves that show no signs of the fig mosaic virus but then the rest of the tree show heavy signs of the virus.

I see this with a few of mine as well, I have one where 98% of tree is perfect, then there is one small stunted branch where everything including the Figs are completely infected, and on one of my panache it's the same u have there, all infected but Figs are fine and there are random perfect leaves???? Very strange!

One of the first cuttings I started years ago of Ischia Black grew six feet in the first year and then stopped growing.  I have a picture of me standing next to it somewhere on my computer.

Hey Tom,
Do you have serrated leaves on yours. Mine is only few months old inside the greenhouse. This tree is originally from Herman. Sorry about the low quality pics.

I have a VDB that has this virus. I find epson salt along with high nitrogen helps for most of my trees but the VDB is really hurting with it. Going to try every other week with this. Epson salt effects the uptake of minerals and helps with the greengage of leaves 🍃

I had an enormous 5 year old oleander that never
bloomed,put epson salt around it and the following spring/summer it was covered in white flowers lol
