Last year we had to have a large tree cut down, which was my mainstay for shade in the front yard. I had four large hostas in that area and was able to dig them up and transplant. My favorite was a "blueboy" that was fantastic. I dug it up (hated to) and divided it into five plants and put in a shaded area. I can hardly believe how beautiful they look this spring. I believe in having other plants around the hosta, because it can be boring by itself. If you read this and are new to planting hostas, beware of slugs. If you see holes in the leaves, particularly large, you know an unwanted visitor is in your garden.
