Design Ideas
Plant hostas under high shade tree canopies in masses where their foliage attains its greatest value. Superior interest for foundation planters on the north and northeastern exposures. Solves problem shade in sideyard conditions between multistory buildings. Ideal under shade arbors at outdoor living spaces. Fill sunny spots in large woodland habitat areas. Excellent container plant for under porch or patio canopy and on shaded deck and terrace.
Provide slightly acidic, evenly moist, well-drained, humusy soil. Best color in bright shade or filtered sun; avoid harsh sun exposures. Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish an extensive root system; once established, reduce frequency. Remove old, faded foliage before new leaves emerge in early spring.
