New to Canna - Do some of mine have the virus?

We put in a pool last fall and decided to have a tropical landscape around the pool. Canna fit that bill perfectly and I purchased quite a few of them and from different places. I didn't know anything about the canna virus at the time. Now I know about it, but not that much. I think all of mine are okay with the exception of the Cleopatra. Below are pics. What do you think??

The Tropicanna I purchased at a big box store. They look okay to me. Here is a pic of the flower...

Now the Cleopatra. I purchased these rhizomes (8 of them) off ebay. They are just now coming out of the ground and these are the first leaves. I have searched the web to find pics of the foliage for this variety but all I can find are pics of the flowers. I don't know if the light green in the leaf is normal or not. The spotting in the leaf has me worried. What do you think?
