Your hostas are looking husky this year and multiplying fast, must be the rain and all that sun that you've been

Jo, I don't remember many details or who did it but there was an extensive study done where many hosta cultivars were deliberatately injected with HVX virus. Results showed which hosta were very suseptible, some resistant and varying degrees of suseptibility in between. Here's a great link on hosta ...

Lucy, your JOTN is a great looking plant the way it is, there's more DGJ than JOTN in the crown. Maybe when you dug it before, you didn't slice off enough of the crown or the dormant buds to eliminate the gold? Snapping off a leaf or two or even an eye works, but it appears your entire crown is invo...

Oh, do it, Renaldo, it's great fun and you learn to look at hosta leaves in a whole new way. Chose mature leaves, most typical of the cultivar, symetrical, flawless, and absolutely clean back and front from top to bottom. Q-tips and cotton balls are tools of choice. Condition them by soaking in cool...

Some years ago, I purchased an electric chipper from Sears. Worked fine on smaller stuff but choked or jammed on larger pieces. It clogged if too many leaves were added. The following week I returned it. Another time I bought a gas powered chipper at a flea market. When the vendor showed me how it w...

Morning Cindi, Sorry for your loss. My experience has been that I cannot keep hosta in a whiskey barrel or large pot for more than a couple years without replacing the soil medium. It apparently collapses or wears out without ever giving us a warning that it is suffering. Another theory is that duri...
