Hosta selections for deep south

Post by fulltimegardener » May 23rd, 2022, 11:40 am

Hi members. Just joined. Here are some pics. I've never used Hosta before. Any suggestions for cultivars well adapted for the deep south. (Louisiana)

I have a perfect combination of part sun to shade. Fantastic soil.

Yep. Andy has some personal issues he is handling. He says once things settle down he will be more active.
