if this was a poll i'd chop and treat the rest of the plant with Manzcozeb or similar but you probably know this. nice plant, i really just wanted to say i love the gradient in colour ,-)

It's really borderline. Personally, I think it'll probably progress in the lowest part because you can already see various infected spots. Cutting brings other risks though because it opens wounds for the pathogens. I would probably cut, but it's a thin thin line.

borderline? 100% fungal stem spot, blight type infection. treat it hard with a good fungicide, start with copper or the one mentioned above. repeat in ten days. no results go to a systemic fungicide.

Do you think the whole column is doomed? 

 

Varis in my climate are a horror story lol

Look, it might survive. I was probably being overly pessimistic. Ive killed many variegates, some through lack of care, some through no fault of my own. I have found that once they show the symptoms, the disease is usually well established in the tissue and no matter how hard I cut, it reappears.
