Hosta leaves turning yellow

True.......very true!

Are they in the ground or pots? In shade or sun? I know a lady with tons of hostas. She has some getting burnt because she lost some shade. She is going to transplant them when able.

They are all in the ground. I have a couple of larger ones that aren't turning yellow...Sum and Substance and a Blue Angel. They are all pretty much in total shade except for 6-7 that are in a couple hours of afternoon sun.

Do you know the names of the others?

Yes, it helped. I am going to just cut the yellow leaves off for right now and keep my fingers crossed.

thanks, Susan-I actually googled "yellow hosta leaves" and arrived at this site! I recently bought one from the garden center for the entrance to my apt and brought it inside because of a cold snap. Clearly I need to leave it outside and NOT water it as much :-)

Yes fay thay dont like to much love if it wont clear up cut back and it will come back just beautiful in the spring and very glad u found us u r home sit and have coffee with us.

if i do water mine then it would just be maybe a couple times during the summer in dry spells otherwise i just let them do what they do and i don't think i could kill the little suckers if i tried. i end up splitting them almost every year.

Once they are done for the season ....They all brown.
Cut to the ground if they annoy you ......Those roots will be there come spring ..
Fear not.................
