How to revive lilli pillies dying back?

We have hedges of LilliPillies and lately they have been dying back quite badly. They have a lot of white lumps all over the branches and despite using NEEM oil the problem persists.

Re: lillipillies

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @gch2790799. It's marvellous to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about Lilly Pilly care.

You might like to have a read through this helpful guide: How to diagnose and revive a sick lilly pilly. Those white lumps are scale and best fought with Yates Scale Gun Insect Pest Killer. However, there are likely other issues going on, too, and the guide will help you identify them.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
