“Stained Glass” Hosta
by admin on Apr.17, 2012, under Images, Real Estate

This Hosta is now one of my favorites. For anyone who thinks Hostas are merely green plants with big leaves, a Hosta can provide a touch of color and variety in sunny or shady locations.
These require minimal maintenance, although they will droop in very dry conditions, they go away in Winter, and just start blooming mid-to-late Spring.
For something you can plant, and walk away and almost forget about, it offers a pretty showy result.
Just saw the first Hummingbird this morning at Rose Cottage (central North Carolina.) Hope all those feeders are ready – Hummingbirds are ready to rock and roll their season – and they’ll be arriving thirsty!

Nature Hills online is a great place to learn about plants. On every product page they include plant size, plant color, location recommendations, flower colors, foliage colors, and a variety of suggested uses. Plus, you see photos that show you exactly what the plant looks like.
For low-maintenance color in your garden – particularly for a spot with low shade – think Hosta. Below are just a few of the varieties available from Nature Hills Nursery. Grab your free Nature Hills Nursery Catalog and start planning your 2011 garden!
