Q.Insects on Camellias
Is it possible to have aphids on my camellias? I was notified by a salesman selling lawn maintenance that my camellias were infested with aphids, due to the shiny substance on the back of the leaves.

Yes, it is possible. It could be aphids or scale. Both cause that on plants. Here is more information on both: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/pests/homemade-aphid-control-a-natural-way-to-kill-aphids.htm
