I was just about ready to dig up 5 of my favorite lillies as I was sure it was a virus. Then I spotted white specs under the leaves. I really want to protect the rest of my lillies and wonder if anyone can help. Luckily my other lillies are planted a pretty good distance from these.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

You're safe, Lisa. The white spots at the base of the leaves are normal hairy stuff. And the "deformation" of the new growth, while it is abnormal, is not a virus and nothing to worry about. They will correct themselves as they grow.

Wow, Thanks, Leftwood, you just saved some lillies I really loved, and made my day.
Best regards,
Lisa
