Mylilpudding.x,

You've hijacked the OPs thread. You also have an insect infestation, perhaps Wooly Aphids. Start by blasting them away with your garden hose. If you search the forum for this pest I'm sure you'll find more.

I will split/move your posts to its own thread after you reply here.

BTW, I think you have a Boxwood.
