@NHJenDion, I think you are right I did not think of the wet leaves and sun connection. We did get a lot of rain. I do have my curly fries hosta in a pot and I put it in the sun so I expected it to bleach. I could not understand why the Herc was getting burned being in deep shade with absolutely no sun.
I started to grow my hostas in pots in the sun the first couple of years to get express growth.
