    Solved What is this plant and why are the leaves (fronds) starting to die ?

    I agree, hippeastrum. Like most (or maybe all?) bulbs, the leaves die back when it's done it's stuff for the year.

    Thanks @micearguers, you've jogged my memory. :thumbsup: They were in pots until two years ago when I planted them out. I thought they'd died not having seen them last year.

    Are these Hosta seedlings?

    I can't really tell as we now grow all ours by splitting them but from memory (not so good nowadays) I don't remember a single leaf stage :scratch:. Otherwise they do look somewhat like Hostas.
