Post #5253495

I just got back from giving my neighbor some cayenne peppers I grew & everything at her house has some sort of whitish dust like covering on it & is dying! I mean it started at her holly hedge ( no berries on it ) & has spread to her sister's next door varigated holly hedge & is taking out a small climbing rose bush & all the hedges & looks like it is spreading to her 15 yr old improperly planted shumardi oak also - it appears to windborne as her sheltered rose bush,holly hedge & hardy hibicuis near the area but out of the wind show no signs of this & a hydragena (sic) has a few leaves showing it but is over all healthly. PLMK if you have any ideas as to what she is dealing w/ because I'm right in the path of it - I have a immature shumardi oak (planted right but still a baby - only 1- 1 1/2" in width) & a whole lot of MGs & other plants that could be affected by this. Prefer to go organic as possible due to the large amount of animals in the neighborhood (we live in the country about an hour north of Dallas as the crow flies). Help DGers - I know somebody knows what I'm dealing with here! Sorry no pics but camera is broke(never garden w/ cell phone in pocket - they are not waterproof...LOL learned the hard way!). Thank you for your time & effort & may your gardens be as beautiful & as bountiful as your hearts, Carol aka Catss
