Hi Angie, don't be afraid from slugs by Heuchera's, thay don't eat it.
And if you see holes than you have perhaps caterpillars.

But keep them well and it is a fine plant from your garden

Hi Pia, most important test is testing on virusses. Some Hostas are sensitive for virusses and you can not se them all on the leaves. Some virussen are sleeping in the Hosta and seeing after a few years on the plant. A good tissue culture lab is doing everytime the test for virusses on new Hostas. F...

Greetings, Dirk.

For people they make Hostas from seeds you can't make a Hosta like that potential. The most exciting Hostas are sports in tissue culture from popular Host...

The dark green edge from Abana is tetraploïde form from Chinese Sunrise.
