Gina1960 you can geek out anytime. I admire the "hort-head" in many who share knowledge. Definitely makes horticulture more interesting. Love the explanations of the variations of variegated plants. I think 1/3 of my garden is variegated in some form and some I have had to cut out the sections that grow back that had reverted to the natural state. If they are not cut out is it true that ...The Whole plant can revert back to non variegated ? This type is..The mosaic or color break.

I read somewhere that if growing tomatoes from seed in a close environment like a small greenhouse that tobacco smoke can cause mosaic virus in some plants. Is that something that you can elaborate on?

Sorry poison ivy caught you... hope your better soon. That's so miserable... heave basically eradicated most of it from the garden . But sometimes out on trails gotta watch out for that and stinging nettles. I don't know which is worse...😳
Thank you
