Look on the underside of the leaves and you will probably see aphids or
gnats - or both. Get an insecticidal soap and spray the leaves top and
bottom, to the point where the liquid is dripping off. Make sure to uncurl
the leaves when you spray them so that the soap gets on all the little
pests.

if you don't care for pesticides you can use dove deturgent mixed
with water tastes bad buggies go away
use one bsb deturgent in full spray bottle of water
works wonders
and also great on roses
it is organic and smells good
