Your Hosta has a natural shape for weed suppression. Consider the mature size of a clump of leafy Hosta planted alongside another, not just a Hosta, but completely covering the soil beneath, preventing weed germination. The weed seedling will always be here but are being denied the essential materials for them to successfully germinate.

The first bit of advice would be to keep your miniatures in containers & not to plant in open ground. At least until they are well established. Miniatures refers to the ultimate size of the Hostas which also means that the root structure is also very small.

Fasciation usually becomes more prevalent when the Spring weather can’t make up its mind what to do. We have had unseasonably cold weather, followed by a prolonged period of extremely warm weather. Followed by heavy overnight frosts. It’s no wonder the Hostas are confused. It is felt that these rapid shifts in temperatures shock the plants biological clock as it tries to emerge.

igns of Spring are all around us now. Snowdrops are over, Daffodils and Aconites are still hanging on, and we are patiently waiting for our overwintering Hostas to show their lovely pips. Soil temperatures are staring to warm up, and some of our Hostas have started to burst through the soil surface, others are still thinking about it.

The new gardening season is just around the corner and the biggest indicator of Spring, for Hosta growers, is the emergence of Hosta pips.

Visitors to Rewela Hostas nursery often tend towards the more striking varieties. The ones that look a bit different to the run of the mill variety of Hosta. This may be colour of the leaf, the contrast in the different colours on the leaf, and often, the intensity of a particular colour such as white.
