URBAN GARDENER
Proper plant maintenance can keep whiteflies at bay
POSTED: 01:30 a.m. HST, Sep 05, 2011
~~<p><strong> Question:</strong> I have tiny white insects on the backs of the leaves of my gardenia. When I brush the leaves they fly up into the air like dandruff. What are they?</p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> The insects you’ve got are most likely a type of whitefly. If you can bring a sample of the insect in to your local extension office or if you have a digital camera and can email a picture of the insect to your local Master Gardener Plant Helpline, we can tell you for sure.</p>
