hello,

my leaves are curling under and the veins are turning brown. when i touch the leaves, they crack. this happened last year and all the leaves were skeletonized. does anyone know whats going on with this shrub? i planted 2 in the fall of '13 and its happening to both. once leaves are skeletons, hardly any leaf growth. no flowers or berries. i have been spraying with soap and water for 2-3 weeks, 3-4 a week. now and its happening again. i don't see any bugs or beetles, unless they are microscopic.

any thoughts as to what's going on??

TIA
