I am located in NE Ohio, so I know it's going to be rough for him during the winter. If i can figure out how to post pics on here I will so that you can see what I am talking about. Thank you so much for any info!!! -Manda
looks like it could be spider mites spray some mild soap water on the leafs and it should take care of the problem but you will need to do this about three times in a 2 week period since the water will not kill their eggs.
sorry I don't like spraying chemicals on plants, but if you must then diazinon or seven dust will kill em
