plant issues

25 june 2001

i've set up this page to answer a few questions that have come up with some of my plants. i'll keep the images & questions posted as a resource for others.

this is scale, isn't it?

foreign substance now identified as sap

these clear, sticky liquid drops on my dracaena marginata appear to be sap. if you think otherwise, please let me know.

plant identification

this plant is some sort of peperomia. if you have more details, let me know.

bugs & pests

these mealy bugs arrived the same time the jasmine sambac entered my collection. that was 8 months ago. i gave up on the jasmine plant. i'm still fighting the mealy bugs (they occasionally visit one of my jade plants).
