I have about 20 lilies grouped together in a garden in the front of my house and on 3 of them this week the leaves on the top started to brown and crumple. Any ideas on what's doing this and how to fix it?? I have pictures but nowhere to post...

Brown leaves are often a sign of either a water definciency or too much water (not to mention a number of viruses and bacterias.) Check the soil and see if it seems too dry or too wet. Too dry...just water more often. Too wet...a little trickier, especially if it's because of rain and not your own watering schedule. Making sure the soil drains well will help with that.
