Chrysanthemum - injury at
stem base due to celery leaftier
Celery leaftier, also known as greenhouse leaftier, normally feeds on
foliage, but sometimes it will feed on stems, as it has done on this
garden mum. Once a troublesome pest especially of mums, it is easily
controlled with materials labeled for use against caterpillars.
