Why does my red abyssinian have brown on the edges of leaves. I thought at first it was'nt getting enough water but now we have had plenty of rain.

I can't answer your question, but will be watching to see if you get answers - DG has a pest forum that you might post on:

Let us know if you find out. Don't forget to consider calling your county extension agent - he may have an answer.
I also have red abynissian banana that has the same problem. I am not worried about it, I remember last year it was the same but the succeeding leaves were okay as summer progressed.
