Hi Jose!
Welcome to the list!
Please tell us sources for hostas in Spain.
You should write a piece on Hostas in Spain. The HOSTA JOURNAL has published
pieces on Hostas in France, Holland, Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, Finland
and Iceland.Whilst I was Journal Editor I was working on getting an article on
hostas in Russia. Unfortunately there was a slight language problem! [If
anyone out there speaks Russian, you might call the Horticultural Department
of Moscow State University to get the info. That is THE university in Russia,
I understand.]]
Good luck with the slug treatments. I have been using this year an English
product call Bio Shower Proof. It is a granular concoction and is the best
thing I have come across in
that form.
Do you also have sowbugs and cutworms? I find that they do more damage to
hostas and hosta leaves than do slugs.
Good Luck!
