Hosta is a species that likes shady and humid-spots. It requires a fertile, humous, properly cultivated soil to develop healthily. We advise to enrich the site with a dose of well fermented compost and a add a dab of peat right before planting. You can plant hosta rhizomes almost all season long, from April to end of August. Place the rhizomes into not-too-deep holes, keeping the 50 x 30 centimetres apart. Growing and maintenance of hostas is very easy. It is limited to watering and a few rounds of fertilizing that should cease in July. We recommend mulching hosta sites with bark, ornamental pebbles, or gravel. This treatment shall not only make the flower bed more decorative, but also retain more humidity in the soil, what hosta plants like.
