Hi-
I'm wondering if I really just don't know what I'm talking about (now there's a
switch...!)
I finally got around to rubbing the little white things on the mandevilla and
they're crusty! Not unlike damp sugar crystals. There are some small web-like
things around some of the unopened blooms and leaves and also where the leaves
and stem meet. Nothing flying around at all.
Does anyone out there have a mandevilla with these things? Maybe it's normal and
I just don't know it.
Thanks
Barb (southeastern PA, where we finally got our first snowfall and the mandevilla
is about 3" taller than it was last weekend)
