| 1178300 | 2011-02-15 21:19:00 | They don't look like scale insects to me. Do they feel like a raised lump, similar to a limpet in shape? If not, then they are probably something else. I have not seen white scale insects either. Additionally, you can lift the scale insect protective cover off the leaf using your fingernail to confirm scale. If you did have scale insects, I would recommend a systemic insecticide as the cover over the scale insect protects it from any contact insecticide. |

| 1178303 | 2011-02-16 03:06:00 | They look like tiny Monarch butterfly eggs, that grow into fat caterpillars as shown in my avatar, only that is not a swan plant. They look nothing like Monarch Butterfly eggs :( Anyway, Monarchs lay their eggs under the leaf, not on top. And you are correct - they are not swan plant leaves :) :) |
