Do you know the names of those two hostas? There are some that generally start to look crappy mid season. Frances Williams can be one of those.

There have been several people who have experienced similar things, including me. Some areas were very much cooler than normal and for longer than normal, then suddenly got very hot. That's what I think happened to mine...

Do you have photos?

Welcome to the forum, BTW!!!! Have fun!

It is also possible that your hostas are getting too much water, or even too much fertilizer. The soil surface should dry out between each time you water, and it is always better to water very deeply a couple times a week than every day. I only fertilize at most a couple times a year, once in the spring for sure.
