Full StoryHi everybody,
I'm pretty new to this, but I've been looking after a Dracaena for the last 6 months or so.
It's developed a pest, but I'm not sure what it is. Essentially there are lots of static white specks appearing over the stems and the leaves.
I did some research on the web and reckon it could be mealybugs or a powdery mildew. Or maybe it's something totally different, but without knowing what it is, I'm not sure how to fix it!
As more of these things appear, the health of my plant is getting worse: stems are darkening (more brown, less green) and leafs are turning brown and dropping as well.
Can anyone help me identify what's wrong and suggest a treatment?
Thanks!
Martin
