Plant Care

June Hosta thrives with consistent moisture but avoid overwatering. Remove yellowed or damaged foliage to maintain appearance. Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring when shoots emerge. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Watch for slugs and snails, especially in early spring.

Division is recommended every 4-5 years to maintain plant vigor and propagate new plants. Cut back foliage in late fall after first frost. Protect from harsh afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorching and maintain vibrant coloring.

Planting Instructions

Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and as deep as the container. Mix organic matter into the native soil for improved drainage. Position the plant at the same depth it was growing in the container. Space plants 24-30 inches apart to allow for mature spread.

Water thoroughly after planting and apply a 2-inch layer of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the crown. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system.
