I have a large area with about 12 crape myrtles. Some they are just starting to flower now.
I saw a few plants with a white film,coating on the leaves and also on some of the flower buds. (they can be wiped off with your finger) Can anyone tell me what that might be? I just hate to loose any of these beautiful plants. Will take a picture if I can and post it......
Thanks

Powdery mildew. It's fairly common on crape myrtles. You're in no danger of losing them.
