But to directly answer your question... if a plant I didn't truely
love showed up as virused I'd toss it. If it was my Owen Holmes.. I'd have
to think about it.... but I'd probably eventually toss it. (slicing
throat)

Agreed, 100%.

Gasp! But what of the ones living just next to the plant in question|??
Viruses travel by damage to the leaf...either by sucking insect (thrip) or
just plain old bumping, dropping damage....... how would one know or be
sure??? (See?? I've been in health care too long. LOL!!! You'd think I was
talking about HIV)

Yeah, but what if the plant in question is just fine? That would eliminate
all the other issues in that paragraph!

I hate to think I'm the only one with crappy leaves!! But
I've seen all your pics and I know better!

Trust me. I have some plants with *very* crappy looking leaves. When we take
pictures we don't generally try to include the garbage, LOL!
