Default Basjoo leaves tips turn dry and brown

I have my basjoos in the ground. lately i am noticing the leave tips turn dry and brown. also noticed something chewing on them (holes).

I appreciate your input and advise as I would not like to loose (sp) them.
They otherwise, look very healthy. I live in N.C. zone 8A and lately we have been having a drought, if it rains it is very little. I do give them deep waterings.
I have fed them potassium in addition to 10-10-10. About a cup for each.

thank you for your advise.
