I think you have a scale infestation and it's quite advanced, unfortunately. It is quite difficult to treat on edible plants, but neem oil spray may control it.

In theory, you should prune out severely affected branches, but this is quite a small plant and the extent of the scale would mean removing too much growth.

  • If you have the time, they can easily be scrapped off with a fingernail. I have done it on a small bay bush. You will need to go back later and check to see if you missed any . – blacksmith37 Jun 15 '22 at 22:33
