Hostas are extremely popular plants primarily due to the mounds of bold, handsome foliage that appear each year. Many hybrids have been introduced over the years, mainly from the USA.
Hostas are simple fellows to look after as most are happy in a fertile, moist bet well draining soil in full to partial shade. The exception to this rule are the yellow leaved hybrids which prefer a bit of sun with shade from midday onwards. Hostas do benefit from being protected from slugs.
We have a wide range available in the nursery at the moment ranging from 2L to 6L pots.
I have selected a few that are looking particularly good at the moment;
• Hosts ‘Fire and Ice’ – white leaves with irregular dark green margin
• Hosta fortune ‘Minuteman’ – the complete opposite from above! Large dark green leaves with an irregular white margin
• Hosta ‘Paul’s Glory’ – voted the best Hosta in the USA in 1999 and still popular with a striking colour combination of gold centres to the leaf with blue-green margin
• Hosta sieboldiana elegans – an old favourite with large, heart-shaped leaves of glorious glaucous grey
