🆘 Infestation!!! HELP - plant gurus wanted! I am a beginner and may be a little in over my head right now 😭 I picked up this Dwarf Jasmine Tree plant from Home Depot some fourish days ago. I’ve repotted it, given it plant food, some nice light, and a couple waterings. It looks nice and seems to have adjusted well, but I’ve noticed these greenish/blackish pests, small white specks, and white chalky residue on the leaves. I consulted Planta AI and it identified the problem as “aphids.” I’ve tried to take off as many pests and as much white residue as possible with a wet paper towel and a little dish soap. As per Planta’s advice, I’ve also doused it in Neem oil. These pictures are after all of my efforts. Should I go on a pruning spree on the clusters of flowering buds, where they seem to congregate the most? Is this plant a lost cause? My pothos is doing well, my periwinkles are doing okay, but me and Jazzy, WE ARE IN PERIL!!!
