Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comWe have a consistent problem with our gardenias in the house in winter. We get a white sticky webbing around base of buds. We have been told it is white fly and sprayed it with Sevin. It does not really work. Any thoughts? Thanks.
