What's wrong with this Hosta?

I have a problem with a couple of my hosta... they seem to be coming up out of the ground.. What is going on with them? and what can I do to help? The Krossa Regal is growing near the No Idea one... I know that is bad not knowing what it is. I do have a list (somewhere).

Please help...
