Plant Information

Plant Care

Stained Glass Hosta thrives with consistent moisture and regular fertilization during the growing season. Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring when shoots emerge. Remove spent flower stalks to maintain appearance. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Watch for slugs and snails, particularly in spring, and treat as needed with appropriate deterrents.

Planting Instructions

Plant in spring or fall, spacing plants 36 inches apart. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Position the crown at soil level and backfill with rich, organic soil. Water thoroughly after planting and apply a 2-inch layer of mulch, keeping it away from the crown to prevent rot. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system.
