Thanks, Doc and Ada. I appreciate that.

Well, I dug out that whole corner and replaced the soil and put a blue Plumbago in the ground there. It had been in a large container and really needed a spot in the ground. Here it is below with CG.

I also discovered a branch of my Monster White Brug had a lesion with a more prominent ring of black around it. I should have known about that one. In the two years that I've had it, it has remained only about a foot tall, and it has never bloomed for me. Bye, bye, Monster White. The funny thing is that it has been in a container the whole time but in the same general area as CG. It is possible that I used the same pruners to cut from both of them. Jamaican Yellow also has been remarkably slow to grow and bloom, but that one doesn't have any visible signs of the virus so it gets a reprieve for now. Pink Beauty is also not showing any signs, thank the Lord.
