Homeowner Growing Tips

Hostas grow best in moist, well drained, sandy soils, were the roots can get plenty of aeration. Prefer full shade but can tolerate a little morning sun, but most afternoon suns will burn and kill the leaves of the hosta.

Hostas are prone to slugs and deer browsing, though some kinds with thicker foliage may not be damaged as badly. Apply slug bait in early spring before the leaves have unfurled to prevent damage.

Divide large clumps, if necessary, in spring when sprouts appear, or late summer. Remove dead foliage from the garden in late fall to early winter.

Water Requirements: Water soil fully, then let soil get moist/dry before watering. Do not let dry out, but also can not be soaked or waterlogged.

Gigantosaurus Hosta is a Winner

I am very happy with the Gigantosaurus hosta plant received. It was in excellent condition, healthy looking, and larger than I expected for a 5" pot. I'm looking forward to it getting established in my garden. The shipping box was built to protect the plant and a nice note was included thanking me for the order. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for healthy plants and value for your money.
