I'm not an expert on viruses.  There are many different plant viruses, 
some will infect many different plants while others are rather 
specific to which plants they will infect.  The streaked tulips you 
buy today are not virus induced but rather are bred to look that way. 
I sort of doubt that the virused tulips will infect the hostas.  The 
question I have is, has anyone identified any serious virus problems 
with hostas?
