- Thrips: They are small and soft-bodied insects and can be found on a leaf’s surface, mostly on the lower surface of leaves. With their sharp mouthparts, they suck the sap of the leaves, buds, and flowers, which causes the leaves to turn brown on the edges. The affected plant appears dry and the leaf becomes discolored and curls upwards.
