Why Choose Hostas?

• Hardy & Long-Lived: Hostas are perennial plants that return every year, thriving in UK gardens (RHS Hardiness H7).
• Diverse Foliage: Each variety features distinct leaf textures and colours, adding depth and interest to shaded areas.
• Low Maintenance: Once established, Hostas need minimal care—just keep soil moist and mulch annually for best results.
• Wildlife Resistant: Naturally deer-resistant, so your plants stay pristine all season.

Growing Guide

• Planting Time: Best planted in early spring or autumn while soil is moist.
• Location: Prefers partial to full shade; ideal under trees, along north-facing borders, or in large containers.
• Soil: Grows best in fertile, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Neutral to slightly acidic pH preferred.
• Irrigation: Water regularly during dry spells—Hostas love consistent moisture but dislike waterlogged roots.
• Caring Tips: Mulch annually and divide clumps every few years to rejuvenate growth. Remove faded leaves in autumn.

Design & Companions

• Create layered shade borders by pairing Hostas with ferns, astilbes, pulmonarias, or heucheras.
• Use as ground cover beneath shrubs or trees where grass struggles to grow.
• Add to patio pots for a lush look on shaded balconies or courtyards.
