I have not seen a sign of a hosta yet but with the last couple of days their
noses should be peeking through. A couple of years ago I went through the
garden with a wheel barrow of compost and every hosta that was showing growth
I just put a pile on top of it. After a couple of days the warm weather
returned and I used a hose to wash away the compost. With hundreds of hostas
it might not be the best idea but you can save a few of your favorites. I
didn't seem to hurt that I left the compost on for a day or two either. N.
