Care Instructions

Light

The hostas in this collection thrive in partial to full shade. They can tolerate some morning sunlight but should be kept out of the harsh afternoon sun to preserve the beauty of their foliage and prevent burning.

Watering

These hostas prefer consistently moist soil that is well-drained. Water regularly to keep the soil moist but not soggy, particularly during dry spells. Be careful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.

Soil

Rich, well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter is ideal for these hostas. A slightly acidic to neutral soil pH is best for healthy growth.

Temperature

Hardy in USDA zones 3–8, the hostas in the Many Shades of Hosta Collection are well-suited for temperate climates but can adapt to warmer regions with some shade.

Plant Dimensions

• Height: Hostas in this collection generally reach heights of 12–24 inches, making them perfect for low-growing ground cover or border plants.
• Spread: Most varieties spread between 18–36 inches, creating full, attractive mounds of foliage that add texture and interest to garden beds.
