Designer style & tough in the dry
Hosta have exploded in popularity recently, as the “must have” hardy solution for gardener designers challenged by shade.
The reputation of Hosta for being able to survive periods of dry, has soared during recent drought years.
So once Hosta are established in the shade, they are certainly not “water-guzzlers” and have good dry-hardiness.
Do not despair - slugs & snails can be defeated
Many gardeners are put off growing Hosta, fearing they will be devoured by snails.
But there are some easy and simple solutions to the slug and snail problem, and timing is all.
Hosta are most susceptible to chew marks when the new, furled young leaves are emerging after winter.
So applications in late winter, early spring, and again in mid spring, of whichever snail slaying ‘ deterrent method you favour, will mean you have beautiful Hosta leaves to enjoy till the end of autumn.
