Answer
Mary:

This may be an insect such as mealybug or scale. It needs to be confirmed before you attempt to manage. Snip off an affected stem/leaves amd carry to your local garden centet for the to ID. They can also suggest an appropriate control strayegy. This does not look like a diseade, but rather a "critter".
