    Rosemary usually blooms in early spring. The difference in appearance might be the fact that it's in bloom now. I imagine that the bees are attracted to the blooms, and are concentrating on that particular plant. The following article should be of help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/herbs/rosemary/growing-rosemary-plants-rosemary-plant-care.htm

    Siince you live in zone 8, now would be an ideal time. Beimg one of the "mediterranean" herbs, the soil should be moist but well drained. Transplanting during the your cooler temperatures will allow root growth to ensure the plants being established before the heat of summer.

    If your plant is in a container, you might be experiencing winter leaf drop. I've grown rosemary "Arp" for years, and it always drops some foliage as spring arrives. "Arp" is the most hardy variety, and mine have experienced and survived of temperatures in the low teens...BUT, they were extremely well drained, and protected from the wind.

    On the critter issue, try to find out what kind of critter. Sometimes an inch of sharp edged gravel is all it takes to discourage them. Good luck.

    I would recommend treating both the plant and soil with neem oil, should there be a pest infestation, especially in the soil. Repotting may help as well, replacing with fresh soil.

    How long have the plants been in this area? Is it well drained? I've found that rosemary is very intolerant of wet feet in the winter, and cold with wet feet sounds the death knell. Don't know about the white lumpy spots unless it's mealybugs or scale that mimics mealies.

    Is the plant getting enough moisture? Thee only time I've seen curled rosemary leaves is when it's wilted. It should be safe to eat.
