Looks like mealy bugs 😬 the white fluffy things, I’d do a wipe down of all leaves with rubbing alcohol and water mix, also spray the stems, might need to do this treatment a few times until they’re all gone. If they keep coming back long term, look into watering in some nematodes that will kill mealybug eggs in the soil
