My snowball hydrangea has thousands of black specs on the stems, right before the new leaf. I know you mention some of this is normal, but on mine you cannot see the color of the stem itself, it is completely covered. Is this healthy or does my hydrangea have some sort of disease or fungus?

Welcome! to NGA

Can you update your info to include your location? Also, a couple pics would help us help you.
