We had some discussion last year about leaves turning purple ~ any further occurences? Unfortunately, I failed to make note of the name that were affected last year ~ I believe I know which ones and they did not return.

I've had another one show up this year. Initally it came up a nice, strong sprout and then took a turn.

May 22 ~ straightened up fairly well and looking good.
May 26 - 29 delivered 6 inches of rain and I noticed that the neck of the lily was weak and flopped over. Installed support for it.

June 5 ~ Removed support as the neck seemed to have recovered and was strong again. Purple leaves noted, then treated with fungicide.

Where are we going, and why am I in this hand-basket?
