Fungus on Mums
 

During this exceptional amount of rain in the midwest, we thought we had
escaped any fungal attacks on our garden. But now we are seeing white foamy
globs forming under the leaves of our mum plants. Has anyone seen this
before? Any thoughts on the best anti-fungal to use for this condition?
Thanks!

Sounds like spittle bugs. Mums are susceptible to these insects (hide in a
foamy white mass on host plants).
