    There is no treatment for viruses in plants. If you are sure it has a virus as opposed to fungal or bacterial infection, dig it up and burn it.  Disinfect any secateurs used on it with methylated spirits.

    I have never met this plant, though it sounds delightful.

    What makes you think that it has a virus?

    Can you give more information and maybe a photo of it?


    Good afternoon.
    Apologies for the delay , all advice would be welcome.

    The photos not really in focus, but from what I can see it looks more like scorch from strong sunlight. Is it in a conservatory/greenhouse?
