Hi everyone,
I am looking for ideas and suggestions for plants to replace hostas that I
will be moving.  The reason I am moving them is root competition from old
maples and pines, very dry soil ( i guess because of the trees).  The
location is on a slope, high shade most of the day with direct sun for about
an hour around 1:00 p.m.  Height doesn't matter, flowers don't matter, but I
would like some variegated foliage, if possible.  I have tried improving the
soil in the past for the hostas without success (the tree roots are happy
though).
Looking forward to all your ideas!
Thanks
Barbara
