I have an Ylang Ylang tree that is about 12 feet tall. It has been doing well until recently. First it developed an infestation of what looked like the tiny black flyspeck scale. I sprayed it several times with Neem Oil and that seemed to help. Then it developed an infestation of mealybugs. Again with the Neem, but it didn't seem to help.
Leaves started to yellow, and fall off a few at a time. Then whole BRANCHES of leaves denuded.
I used the Bayer Tree and Shrub on it, and it didn't help. I sprayed it with Isotox. It hasn't helped. I tried the coffee ground mulch. That hasn't helped.
I don't want to have to remove the tree, but I can't have a constantly infested tree either.
What should I try next?? Should I severely prune it and let it "start over"? Its never bloomed yet for me and I don't want to lose the opportunity.
