Hi Clyde,
When is it too late to fertilize Hosta because it will trigger new growth

late in the growing season? I was just wondering if it was too late to
fertilize mine now.
Thanks,

If your plants have been in the ground for most of the year then you should
be able to fertilize until they turn yellow/brown in the fall.
The only time I have had problems is on new material that has come in late in
the year-but if it's mature NOW IS the time to keep them good and feed and
watered well-then you will have more increase and larger plants next year-but
remember the water too.
