   Hello Narda,

               You have a very unique name, this is my first time
   to come across someone with that name. HOSTAS, hmmm--,
  You are a lucky one. Those things just do not grow for me at
  all.

> Don't understand your problem with the birds,

                  Birds do what come natural;-looking for food, seeds,
   worms, bugs and whatever else they can find for their survival.
   Now days they somehow think the best place to find food is in
   the Sans pots. With the Lithops, They will consume the whole
   plant leaving nothing but maybe a few thread of roots. Same
   with Hawthias.  With the Sans, they  poke through the soil,
   some times leaving a big hole in the pot, damaging leaves and
   roots. ( All of the Sans are in pots.) When the birds decide that
   they are done looking, they leave you a great wonderful mess
   in their appreciation plus nitrogen for the Sans.Often they will
   lift the Sans  completely out of its pot.:>((   I am outdoors most of
   the time, but can't forever stand guard.(tear rolling down my face)

    Perhaps  the DARN BIRDS here are much hungrier
    and having a harder time finding food.

                What are your most favorite Sans?  Must be COOLD there.
   Do you grow them outdoors or indoors?
