Thanks, Kim. I sent you an email.

I'm new to gardening, had purchased a couple hostas as well a few other plants from a nursery in New Berlin.... Could you tell me which nursery??

Is the nursery you are referring to "Shady Lanes Nursery"? If so, I am sooo sad. I was there the last time 2 yrs ago and pointed out the virus to an employee. She couldnt have cared less. I asked that she let somebody in charge know, but I wasnt optimistic. I was rather persistant and made it clear that this virus was a big deal. Years ago when it was owned by its previous owner, this NEVER would have been ignored... they have a very good selection, but I saw it on several different hosta when I was there last.... I am glad I havent wasted my time to drive that far again since they obviously dont care....very sad....PS they sell at the Brookfield Farmers Market...buyer beware. Im sorry if naming them seems harsh, but hosta growers know what a big deal it is to bring this virus home. Shady Lanes charges way too much to not have this matter to them....Unfortunately, I think you have a better chance of bringing home a healthy plant from walmart or home depot....=(
