Default What's causing the brown edges on my hosta plant? - Hosta leaf brown edge 01.jpg (0/1)

Aha! Now we are getting somewhere.

I look forward to seeing the picture of the plant in question.

Seeing the picture would help in being able to determine whether it is an
environmental cause or a virus problem affecting the plant.

Exactly where on the freaking planet are you?

What is has the temperature been the past few days?

When is the last time you watered the plants?

Which 'variety" is it that is having the problem? Is it a variegate?

You cannot post pictures to this newsgroup. Try
alt.binaries.pictures.gardens instead.


Ok. I'm located in Dayton, OH. It's been warm and humid but these
plants do this every year regardless of temp or moisture. I don't know
the variety but the leaves are about 12 inches across and variegated.
the next time I post a picture it will be to the ng you mentioned.
Thanks.

I have two of these big hosta plants on the north side of my home.
They're beautiful except the edges of the leaves turn brown. There's
another variety next to them that doesn't have this problem. Is it
problem with this variety? I don't think it's too much sun but maybe
for this variety it is. Possibly a soil deficiency? Any help is
appreciated. Please see attached picture for example (I don't know if
I should be posting a picture to this group but not sure how to show
example otherwise). Thanks for any help!
