Where I work the Hostas are grown in containers. The whole area is covered
with slag (like used on a driveway). The pots are just set on the slag inside
poly huts (although there is no poly on in the summer) in the full sun. (Need
I say that this is NOT a Hosta specialty nursery?) They received overhead
irrigation several times a day as needed. They are not in any particular
order as far as which one is next to which other one, but all of one kind is
kept together; but I do notice that 'Francee' very seldom has slug damage or
any of the slimy critters lurking in the pots when I divide them.
