Q.Giant Milkweed With Yellow And Misshaped Leaves

Zone 34446 | Anonymous added on April 11, 2024 | Answered

My giant milkweed was beautiful and large green leaves last year. I cut it back for spring cutdown and it’s now growing yellow misshaped leaves. The leaves are very veiny as well. Any idea what could be causing this? Thank you for any help or suggestions you may have.

Cut those out and see if they grow back the same. If they do, the plant may have a virus and need to be removed.
