Rust? I have this on several of my philodendrons. The white specks donā€™t move so Iā€™m not thinking mites. Any ideas? Iā€™ve started treating two weeks ago with a fungicide, but itā€™s hard to say if itā€™s working or not

    Its scale! Keep it away from all of your plants. I use one tablespoon and dish soap in a large spray bottle and fill the rest with water. You might need to repot in new soil and sanitize the pot to be safe!

    This is unfortunately a rust fungal infection. Common to Philodendron species. Treat all affected plants with a fungicide. Itā€™s easily treated ā˜ŗļø

      Iā€™ve been treating with Arber fungicide. I lost my HUGE monstera to rust last year šŸ˜¢. Now, just to make sure, Iā€™m treating with Insecticidal soap based on the comment related to scale. Honestly, I donā€™t think the Red Congo is scale, based on images I found last night. BUT I have a Florida Green ghost that Iā€™d asked Planta about and didnā€™t get a definitive answer (or maybe it was rust) but it seems a little more like scale, than rust. Plants equal pests. ā€œFunā€
