Hey, there! I just noticed a peculiar thing I've never seen before; three leaves of my rose-scented geranium have what appears to be salt in their gullies. I thought at first I was looking at powdery mildew (a familiar foe), until I noticed the loose, sparkling quality of the substance. Are the leaves leaching salt? I do not fertilize, never need to, and the effected leaves still look as healthy as ever (I have still removed them in case the substance is otherwise nefarious). What could this be? For information's sake, this geranium is planted in a half-gallon SmartPot.
