Description

A mosaic virus in an Egyptian Woodrose plant growing in a very weedy wide verge on the side of this access road down to the north end of the Four Seasons property. The ground is low-lying here and does not usually ever dry out completely.

As you can see in image 2, the plant has a noticeably hairy petiole and a hairy stem too. We consider the host plant to be an Egyptian Woodrose, Distimake aegyptius:
