Planting Instructions: Use well-drained soil with a pH of 6.0 - 6.5.  Plant so the crown is 1" below the soil surface, leaving developing eyes at or just below the soil surface. Spread roots evenly throughout the soil for faster growth. Allow pots to dry slightly between watering, especially until growth appears. Hostas are light to moderate feeders. It is best to incorporate a slow-release fertilizer in the soil before transplanting. If topdressing is desired, apply to the top of the soil after potting.
