• Planting Instructions (bareroot hosta):

  • Plant in early spring or fall while the soil is cool and workable.

  • Soak bareroot roots in water for 30–60 minutes before planting.

  • Select a shaded or partially shaded site with rich, well-draining soil.

  • Dig a hole wide enough to spread out the roots and deep enough so the crown (where roots meet shoots) is about 1 inch below the soil surface.

  • Spread roots naturally in the hole, cover with soil, and firm gently.

  • Water thoroughly after planting and keep soil evenly moist until established.

  • Apply mulch to help retain moisture and suppress weeds, keeping it away from the crown to prevent rot.
