Knowing
about hosta plants and where they would thrive in each application
is important. Generally, hostas are considered shade tolerant
plants, but most do not do well if grown in deep shade. So
inquiring about hosta cultivar placements would be important.
Some cultivars are more tolerant of shade than others. Most
hosta plants grow best in an exposure with morning sun and
afternoon shade.
Hostas
planted in locations where they receive full afternoon sun
may show signs of marginal leaf burning in the summer months.
Knowing about hosta cultivars that are most tolerant of full
sun locations would be important. In general, blue leafed
hostas require shade, but the gold, yellow and white leafed
hostas can tolerate more sun. |
