Hi there. I hope someone can help. My husband got me a yellow hibiscus tree for my birthday last year. It did great outside all summer, and when we moved it inside over the fall/winter, it became infested with white, fuzzy little things. I would get rid of them, but they'd come back (I see this is common on the forum). Finally, I removed all the leaves from the tree except a few. The leaves all came back. However, they came back a darker, green, slackened and thin feeling. Now, the leaves are yellowing on teh edges and in the middle. I see some white lines in it, as though some insect is inside the leaves? But no signs of life otherwise.

We recently moved it outside (spring here now in NY, and we're coastal) and it did not imrpove nor significantly decline. We were away for two weeks, during which time it was cloudy, rainy, and about 60 ish degrees on average. It was under a roof, so not overwhelmed with water, but it surely got some. The soil does not feel overly moist.

Does anyone know what can be causing this? I've got more of a blackthumb than green... but this was such a special gift, I'd love to not kill it. :( Thank you for any advice you can offer! Kiki
