I bought a lemon tree, from Lowe's, nothing special, about a year ago. It does OK for me considering my climate. It's indoors most of the year, outside for June-August. I'm just curious because when I bought it, it had no variegation. Now, a bunch of the leaves have this variegation to them. The areas in the picture that are whitish coloured are not dry, the leaves don't die, they just have white patches. Is this a virus or anything. It gets a ton of blooms on it and gets baby lemons but they usually fall off when they are about the size of a walnut. I don't mind, I like the blooms. Just curious about the variegation thing and why it happens or what it is.

Thanks,
