Hosta Gardens
Shaded Hosta Leaves
Hostas are one of the most popular foliage plants. They are remarkably easy to grow (as long as the slugs and snails are dealt to). Hosta breeding has introduced some amazing leaf variations, too.
Mooseys has a lot of hostas, but none of the names are known. Hosta breeders will shudder at this, and at the total lack of knowledge of hosta types planted in the Moosey garden. Visits to the following websites should therefore be compulsory for one gardener, at least!
