Q.Leaves On Confederate Jasmine Turning White.
Hi I recently bought this Confederate Jasmine and after I replanted it some of the leaves started turning white. The plant has not grown at all , it’s been a month, or put out any new growth. Can you please tell me what is wrong with it ?

Confederate jasmine is slow to get started, but it should take off once it becomes established. The white areas could be powdery mildew, a fungal disease. It is not usually serious. You can spray with a fungicide labeled for powdery mildew or use Neem oil. The article below tells how.
