Description

I am an August Moon Hosta, and I am best known for my dainty white bell shaped flowers, and attractive heart-shaped leaves. My medium texture allows me to blend well with any garden, and I am the perfect choice for filling out the shadier areas of your yard. I am low maintenance, thrive in all soil types and only require a bit of spring clean up before I resume my growing season in the summer. One thing to note about me is that insects and snails find me tasty, and may chew through my beautiful leaves - misting my leaves with a bug repellent such as citronella or tea tree oil does a great job at keeping me safe from these garden pests! I am happiest, healthiest, and most beautiful when I am able to enjoy the cool shade and my soil is kept moist.

Care Guide

  • Watering: Water regularly, keeping soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water once to twice a week depending on the weather conditions
  • Maintenance: Divide and transplant every 3-5 years to prevent overcrowding and improve overall plant vigor
  • Pruning: Cut back the entire plant to ground level in late fall or early winter to prepare for the following growing season
  • (Optional):Fertilize using a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring, just as new growth begins to emerge. Reapply fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy foliage and strong root development

Planting Instructions

Planting a trees or plants is easy! First, begin by digging a hole that's twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the tree or plant in the hole and add some bonemeal fertilizer. Backfill with fresh soil if needed and water thoroughly. Water regularly until roots are established to keep the plant healthy. Enjoy your new tree or plant!
