Hi all,



I have a hibuscus plant in my backyard. But from a week or so it is showing white spots under it's leaves. Only the top level leaves are showing these.



Is there any cure for this?



Please advice...

A tropical hibiscus?

White spots -- snow scale or whiteflies -- maybe?

I wonder if it could be planting. Is it planted in full sun or partial shade? I used to work with and planted hibiscus in Florida in 1989 and 1990.

My book says it may be snow scale. It says its a full sun to dappled shade to flower. Other than that I do not know.

Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology. Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us that we are not the boss.
