First time poster here.
I've got all these scaly-white buggy things on almost all my coleus
plants, and they're killing the plants. Other plants in same planters
or nearby appear unaffected.
What are these? Are there any natural or relatively non-nasty way to
get rid of them?

TIA,
Steve


Mealy bugs. I had them too this past winter and I've NEVER had them
before. I tossed my plants, I tried some "organic" insecticide and it
did nothing. Next time I use real bug killer.
