About Hosta

Hostas are shade-tolerant, but grow best with full morning sun in northern climates. Most are mounding. Some characteristics described do not show up until the plant is a few years old, so younger plants may not express them at the time of purchase. See more on growing hostas and Hosta Virus X and an additional hosta in Unusual & Rare Plants.
