Kopper King Gets Lacey Foliage

I love Kopper King. The flowers get HUGE! And, I love the dark foliage.

Last year the foliage started becoming rather holey between the ribs/veins and ended up really getting bad as the season progressed. It hasn't happened yet, but if it does (I have a gut feeling it will), I'd like to know what it is and what to do about it.

Thank you, in advance, for any helpful comments/ideas/suggestions.

Happy Gardening!

Steve

    I had the same problem last summer. It is starting to happen again. I had to look really close, this tiny catapillar thing is doing it.First bug I noticed was a small flying bug with a red marking. I looked it up and it is prone on Hybiscus. Then I noticed the holes in leaves and it was the small catapillar thingie. I picked them off by hand and patrol. I also used Neem oil once and will reapply tonight.
