hello folks

i have a fukien tea which was in fine bloom last year but is
currently
without leaves and covered in small, brown, furry bud-like
things. is this
an ex-fukien tea or is there still some hope?


Sounds like aphids. A pyrethrum spray (Concern, etc.) or a soap
spray (also Concern, or Safers, or home brew -- see archives)
should do 'em in. Then, if it is indoors, get the tree
outdoors!!!!

Do not water much while the tree is leafless. Let soil dry out,
then water.
