Hi there. . .I'm from Sudbury Ontario Canada. Got the same problem. I spoke to our local greenhouse/garden nursery hoticulturist. Go out at night and check for insects. Some holes in your leaves are from normal insect activiity, if there's lots, then you know it is a insect problem, HOWEVER, my problem is something different. leaves are curled around the outside edges, almost looks like hand that has formed like a claw. There are a few holes in the upper leaves, but not enough to cause the leaf curl. My problem is from OVERWATERING. . .killing my trees with kindness, Horticulturist said I should only water 2 or maybe 3 times a summer--if that. I've been watering every day for 2 months. I was told to back off on the watering. Don't water again til fall-Sept or Oct. . .but only once. Let the root system find its own source of water. Roots on my trees are starting to rot from overwatering. My trees will be fine as long as I stop watering or killing them with kindness. I have beautiful gardens, my property is amazing. Thought I knew it all. . .but I blew it. . .almost killed my favourite trees in the whole wide world. Good Luck!

It is possible that your Crimson King Maple tree is suffering from a pest infestation, such as caterpillars, which can cause curled leaves and holes. Inspect the tree for caterpillars or other visible signs of pests and consider applying appropriate insecticidal treatments if necessary. It is also important to ensure the tree is adequately watered and receiving proper care to help it recover from any stress it may be experiencing.
