| Howdy!
Bought canna rhyzomes last week and I planted them in pots. One is coming up and the leaf is not one toned. I thought I read that any cannas have even green leaves and streaks could be that yellow mottle virus. Do the photos below look like a plant that is infected or are there varieties that have two toned leaves? Thanks! Ken

| I think it is too early to tell. There can be many factors that affect the first few leaves. I would definitely keep it isolated from any other cannas you may have. If you don't have other cannas, don't worry right now. Post some pictures later as it grows. :) |

| Thanks for taking the time to respond green thumb guy! No other cannas other than the 3 other new pots. I will post photos as they grow. Thanks! Ken |

| Okay... second leaf opened up on the above plant. Looks better, but still not completely green. Anything to worry about yet?
Here are two others pots that are just opening up:
Let me know if you think I should chuck them or wait longer. Thanks! Ken |
