Hello all!

I'm new-ish plant mom and, now, a new Hosta plant mom. I got this Hosta from Home Depot about 2 days ago and noticed these red spots on some of the leaves. Does anyone have an idea of what this could be and/or any suggestions on what I should do?

It kinda looks like the start of rust. I'd treat with an antifungal
