I live in the Mojave Desert area of Southern California, so it gets hot here, but the plant has been healthy-looking all year, and suddenly these holes developed. They’re only in the top leaves of the plant. The lower leaves still look healthy. The third picture is the healthy leaves for reference.

Flea beetle, it looks like. But i only see them in early summer. I bet someone knows. Sorry, I don’t
