Mosaic Virus infects houseplants. Specifically, aroids are prone to be infected by this virus.

There are many Philodendron plants and also Monstera that are infected. Recently there was a wave of Monstera Adansonii with Mosaic Virus. A sign to spot the virus are the leaves.

Initially, most people are happy and think it is variegation. But whenever you are unsure it almost always is the Dasheen Mosaic Virus. Light green streaks along the veins of the plant, distorted growth and leaves that are not unfurling can indicate DsMV.

There is no cure for this virus as of now. Botanists and hobbyists alike recommend to dispose the infected plants to save your houseplant collection or indoor jungle.
