Is this a fungus? I don’t see anything moving. It’s a leaf from my Forget Me Not. It’s fuzzy around the edges of the leaf. Or is it an insect? Newbie from Denver.

If it’s just one leaf I trim them off and act like they didn’t happen lol but IF it continues or the whole plant starts dying it’s a bigger problem.  
sometimes the leaves stay wet/moist for too long and develop a powdery mildew, that’s what this looks like.

Yeah. It was just one leaf. Thanks.

I think it’s mealy bugs! Use a paper towel dipped in isopropyl alcohol and press it on the bugs. If they turn brown, it’s definitely mealy bugs. You can spray the whole leaf with diluted isopropyl alcohol and wipe them off. Keep a close eye on the plant; you might have to treat it a few times

It was only one or 🍃 leaves. Guess it can’t hurt to use Neem Max oil?
