    There are several reasons this could be happening. The plant may not be getting enough humidity, there may be thrips on the plant or it may be a fungus. Treat the plant with a pesticide and a fungicide to take care of any pest or fungus issues. Also make sure that the plant is getting enough water.

    It is likely a fungus, so you can go ahead and treat the plant with a fungicide to try to get rid of the disease before it gets a good grip on your plant.
