Why does your Lilium oriental Stargazer have fine webbing? Diagnose the cause and fix it with our step-by-step guide.
Spider mites thrive in the warm, dry conditions often preferred by Stargazer lilies. They feed on the undersides of leaves, injecting toxins that cause stippling and leave behind fine silk webbing as they create colonies.
A specific strain of spider mite that is highly aggressive on Lilium species. The webbing becomes more dense around new buds and leaf axils as the population grows, eventually leading to premature leaf drop.
While rare as 'webbing,' extremely high humidity trapped in dense Stargazer foliage can cause fungal hyphae to appear as fine, hair-like structures. This is usually accompanied by dark spotting on the lily petals.
