I had someone tell me that I could not sell ferns and hosta in the same

yes, many ferns have nematodes -- at least the field grown ones from large
wholesalers.
A Number of plants can be infected by foliar nematodes, Tricyrtis and
Arisiama and even Peonies can bring them into a new garden.
If I might be permitted, in a later post I would like to add my two cents
