Re: Maintaining Streaked Breeding Hostas
Hi Gerry,
I cut my divisions and planted them back in the ground. I am in zone 7
which is quite a bit milder than Ran Lydel. This works well in my area.
I have very well drained sandy soil.
Remember,
Ran's the man,
knows his hostas better than,

Dan,
How will you maintain these divisions that you are making at this time
of
year? Potted, I assume..but over-wintered like established potted
plants?
