Has anyone ever confronted the following dilemma?
Gold leafed varieties can tolerate more sun than can the darker green or
blue ones. But when using hostas in the landscape, it's in the shadier
areas that you most need the gold leaves..and the areas that get more light
where dark green/blue would be most useful.
Suggestions?
