Just purchased a flamingo Lilly yesterday and it was browning and 3 leaves were browning a bit upon purchase. What should I do to treat it?

There’s quite a few things it could be.  
The worst.. spider mites.  
Cold damage, sun damage, overwatering, basically anything else.  
The best you could do is rule out pests/root damage and cut off those leaves since they will never turn green again.

This looks like scorching. But I agree removing them is best practices. If it is something like rust (fungus) it's very contagious

Thank you so much. I cut them this morning. Hopefully it helps!

Same thing happened to mine… for me it was definitely cold damage as I had it shipped with another plant. I, too, cut it all back and now I wait! Good luck
