It could be getting set to flower, or you might have leaf rollers. Check to see if you have any cut-like markings on the existing leaves, or if you hvae any thin web-like substance preventing the leaves from unrolling.

If so, you have leaf-rollers and you might want to spray it with some pesticide for leaf rollers
