It never fails me. It comes in all sizes and shades. From very small to very large. So it fills in some corners that nothing else fills.
I grow quite a few in pots. The pots will go in places where I can't grow anything. I usually buy several to put on the deck where its shady.
The ones above are in a place where its quite shaded and the lime green one really highlights the area.
The ones below are quite big and fill in the gap by the fence
I love that they come in many varieties so they are never boring.
By putting them in a large container it can add height as well as interest.
I can also move them if they are in a pot, if they don't like where I put them, then they can move. I find that they are very easy though. They do like sun. The ones I have in more sun seem to thrive better. Back in the shade garden they take longer to come up. I will be getting some more and putting them in some large pots so that they fill in quicker and I can pot up some smaller ones and move them.
I don't know the names of each of them, but there are so many different colours and shapes and shades
Somewhere in the garden I have some mini Hostas in containers. I didn't think to get pictures of those because I only just decided to do a post on Hostas.........There are two Hosta gardens in our area. I have not been there for several years. I thought of that because I know I got a mini one at one of them. I may want to visit this year..........In any case I will certainly buy a few more before the years done.
The one in the box will not get any bigger. The one in the pot gets bigger every year, I suppose I should divide it but I love how big it is. I have several back in the shade garden that are crowding out their pots........Well, thats it for today.....love my Hosta
