I have 5 hostas in back garden. also, pachysandra. very large tree cut down a month ago. I've been pulling damaged leaves from the hosta, and today whilst weeding, saw the pachy. is a problem. Just discovered a virus attacks hostas and can't tell if thats the problem, or slugs eating and diseasing (?) these plants. Cut the damaged pachy. off. All these cuttings went into a bag and will go into trash.

That garden gets more sun than it ever did. To compensate, I water regularly hoping they will all get used to sun. How can I determine with a virus (on both hosta and pachy??), or maybe sunscald. I don't want to take hostas out if I don't have to. Perplexed
