white mold


Question
My ponytail palm has what appears to be white mold on it's leaves.  How can I get rid of the mold and save my plant?

Answer
Hi Meagan, its either powdery mildew (fungus) or white scale (tiny insect infestation)...first look close and see if it a powder like substance, if so spray it with a fungicide (home depot has it), if its scale, it will more three dimensional, then spray it with household rubbing alchohol,...regards Nick
