Dave and Everyone -
My lovely hibiscus seems to be ill! I have kept it inside, in a south  
facing window, and fed and watered it regularly. Several months ago, I  
pruned it after it flowered, and repotted it. Despite my efforts, it  
has been dropping leaves: they begin to yellow, and then parts of each  
leaf literally brown and dry. I am convinced that it won't be long  
before the plant dies. Very depressing. I looked at the leaves - for  
critters, and didn't see any (of course my eyes are not the  
greatest...), but sprayed them with insecticidal soap, just in case.  
Any other ideas???

today)
