    On closer examination .. there seems to be some sort of web (like a spider web) over a lot of the browner areas (taken close on the second picture (b) ) :-(

    The front edge on the right-hand photo certainly doesn't look happy, though the rest isn't too bad.

    Could it be getting hit by winter road salt spray?

    Thank you for your reply .. No salt road spray in our area though :-(

    They just sand maybe with something mixed in with that...

    That helps! Bad case of spider mites.

    They don't like wet, so spray the whole plant thoroughly with cold water a couple of times daily. If you have a pressure hose, use that.
