Hello everyone! I'm experiencing some strange damage to my endless summer hydrangea. The new growth has become leathery, twisted, and is browning.
I discovered some white fuzzy material on some stems, which I think might be leaf hoppers.
Could leaf hoppers be the culprit for this damage? Should I cut off the damaged leaves?

Thanks!
