i have a hosta that i started from seed back in january and was wondering if this will require any protection over winter? can it be left outdoors? its still in a pot at the moment . . . also are they slow growers from seed? mine hasn't put on a massive amount of growth and is still quite small. dont they die back through the winter months? :?: hosta ( photo / image / picture from lukeypukey's Garden ) not sure what variety it is as the seeds i got were mixed
That's a great looking Hosta! I grew a Hosta Vertricosa from seed once. I left it outdoors for the winters and treated it the same as the older Hosta's. I do remember it took a long time before it grew big enough to bloom.
yeah its taking its time alright. it looks quite happy where it is and the slugs are staying away. do you feed yours netty??
Nice baby! I've potted up a couple of volunteer hosta babies and just left them outside over winter. They did very well. Your climate's a lot warmer than mine so I think yours will do well too. Good luck.
