Although I have had several hostas change, the concerns about virus x made me take a second look at one of my minis, Pandora's Box. It was new last year and then got eaten to the ground by one big slug before I rescued it and moved it to a table top. I have had to keep all of my minis in pots because of six inch slugs.
Hopefully no one ever has to deal with this virus. Here is one of many articles out there on the web.

Here is the most recent information from the American hosta society's website with information on getting testing kits.
