Leaf streak in daylilies #880241

Asked August 05, 2024, 12:05 PM EDT

Im pretty sure my daylilies have leaf streak. So far I have just removed the yellowed leaves. How should I be combating this disease? Thanks! Martha

Expert Response

Our wet weather is contributing to this problem.  Avoid watering from above and remove affected leaves, putting them in a hot compost site or burying them.  Fertilize your daylilies to encourage new healthy growth.  For detailed information on how to deal with this issue, see https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/daylily-leaf-streak/
