I bought a hanging basket with petunias in it in June. The plant looke
wonderful when I bought it, but now it has turned brown and brittle i certain areas. The main large stems are green, but most of the of shoots have turned brown. (stem and leaves) Only the ends flower now. have been watering them everyday and they recieve plenty of sun. I hav noticed that there are tons of tiny black ball like things all over th plant. I was wondering what they are. They come off easily. The groun is usually covered in them. My plant is on the balcony of m apartment, so I doubt it's an insect (unless they were on there when bought the plant)
If you need a picture to understand what I am talking about, just le me know. Thanks
