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 organic 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. 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. ◗ ●
