Re: [Aroid-l] Yellow spots on Amorpho. alba

Hi Jakub,

An easy way to diagnose for mites is to hold a clean white  
handkerchief or piece of paper under a potentially infested leaf and  
flick the leaf gently with your fingertip. If you subsequently see  
tiny specks moving on the white field then you know you have a problem.

Best,
Bryan

Dear Jakub,

A friend alerted me to what, in retrospect, is probably your
problem---spider mites!   Examine CLOSELY the undersides of the leaves w/ a
magnifying glass for TINY, almost microscopic living beings (mites, which
are Arachnids), as the yellow spots on upper sides of the leaves are
distinctive of the damage done BELOW the leaves by these feeding pests!

Julius
