Uses For Hostas

Nature plants hostas where ever they can grab a strong hold. Gardeners might want to exercise a little more planning so that the selected hostas compliment the garden. Consider the following uses to spark interest in your garden:

  • Border/Edger planting - Hostas for the border are generally 12 inches or less in height but have increased horizontal growth. By overhanging a lawn edge they are able to control weeds as they leave no room or light for them.
  • Background/Backdrop planting - Large green hostas will show off more colorful varieties of plants. Hostas which emerge with tremendous color but fade to all green (viridescent) are great background plants (see fortunei 'Albo-picta').
  • Specimen planting
  • Groundcover planting
  • Natural brightener for shady or dark gardens (yellow and mostly white hostas)
