Jung’s Select Hostas
Zones 3-8–These hardy perennials are ideal for ground covers, low borders, edg- ings and around the base of trees. They prefer full to partial shade and good organ- ic matter content in the soil for water retention. Partial shade is far better than full sun which, except in cooler, moist areas, causes the leaves to yellow and scorch on the edges. In the north the foliage freezes to the ground, but appears early in spring to last all season. Hostas on this page are well-rooted plants in 3 inch pots. ◗ ●
RED OCTOBER Red October
17586–This much sought-after hos- ta has unusual red stems. The bright red pigment drenches the leaf petiole and actually extends into the foliage. Blue-green, lance-shaped leaves have silvery-white undersides. In fall the clumps put on a show with their numer- ous red-purple spikes topped with lav- ender fl owers. Mature size is 12 inches high with a 24 inch spread.
