1. When to plant: Plant in spring when new shoots appear. This is also a good time to split and transplant established clumps. However, early fall is also an option, especially if you want your plants to look more mature in spring. 2. Planting location: Generally speaking, hosta likes to stay away from direct sunlight. Most people can tolerate morning sun, but need shade during the hottest part of the day. They are usually planted under trees, but do not like competition from shallow rooted trees. 3. How to grow: Dig a wide planting hole, as hosta roots can grow to a foot deep and two feet wide. Unravel the roots of the plants and place them on the mound formed in the center of the hole. Backfill and water thoroughly. Bare root plants should be soaked for several hours before planting to rehydrate the roots. 4. Soil: Hosta grows best in rich soil rich in organic matter, such as compost.5.Hosta has a touching love story. A long time ago, at the foot of the mountain lived a beautiful and understanding shepherdess. One day, the girl was grazing on the top of the mountain, and suddenly she encountered a fierce and extremely fierce wolf that was about to pounce on a flock of sheep. A young hunter just happened to meet. He fought bravely with the jackal, and finally defeated the jackal and maintained a flock of sheep. The girl thanked the young hunter for his immediate help, and loved his uprightness and bravery even more. She personally picked a rare hosta leaf and presented it to the heroic hunter. The youth also loves beautiful and innocent girls very much, and inserts this rare hosta leaf behind the girl's ear. Since then, the two have sincere love and lived a happy life.
