Hi everyone,

My dracaena recently got white spots on the leaves and seems to be drooping more.

I tried to clean them off and sprayed the whole plant with soap water about 3 weeks ago.

Since then the spots have trippled. Pictures below.

Please help!

This plant also looks like it has pests. I can't see them clearly. Maybe whiteflies or mealybugs, or some kind of aphids.

I think you would want to determine what they are. Different pests are thwarted by varying methods. If it was my plant, I would probably first try blasting them off with water with the plant laying sideways in the shower or outside if warm enough.
