Hiya Pally

Tell me, is this like a kind of powdery silvery deposit?

Are the leaves twisted and rolled?

Is it mostly on the undersides of the leaves?

If so you have got a big fat case of Honeysuckle blight.

No worries, there are way to treat it. With chemicals (trip to the gerden center for you smile ) or with a pair of shears and a bonfire.

Hope this helps smile
