Thanks for both your responses. I'm beginning to think it is TSWV after a lot of reading. The mites "generally" start from the ground up and this is from top downward. I've examined the leaves closely and there is no sign of eggs, sugar, etc, so it is possibly not psyllid.

I think maybe TSWV because 1) the leaves are curling inwards and 2) it is starting from the top and working down. But, I have an awful time trying to identify these diseases.

I may monitor another day and then pull it if I'm still thinking TSWV. I'm open for any other suggestions, counter points, etc.
