This popular genus of about 70 different species can be found adding luxurious foliage and spears of delicately coloured flowers to many gardens in the UK.

The plants range in size from the tiny to the giant leaved and come in every combination of lime green, blue-green, cream and deep green.

Hostas are fully hardy and love the shade and damp but these are adaptable plants that will find happiness in the sun…even in drought.

Slugs and snails are the biggest enemies to hostas but there are a variety of methods out there to keep these slimy pests at bay!
