for a friend of mine who has an area he wants to plant with hosta. The bed
gets full sun until approximately noon each day. Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks, Jean >>
Hi Jean. I have the following hostas growing in a spot that gets that much
or even a little more sun. This is the first year that I have had them in
this location and I plan on more eventually:
1. Aspen Gold No Burning at all
2. August Moon No Burning at all - 3 plants
3. Royal Standard Beginning to burn slightly in center
of leaves on 1 of 3
plants.
4. Sum & Substance No Burning
5. Wide Brim Beginning to show a much lighter
color on the edges of
the leaves than earliewhich is more cream colored.
6. Patriot. Burning - not greatly but
significant for this time of
summer.
7. Plantaginea None as yet but plant just recently
moved there.
8. Emerald Tiara Badly burned - will definitely move
plant next year.
Hope this helps your friend Jean.
Ronnie
