| Most hostas grow best in full shade. There are exceptions, but full summer sunshine will make even the toughest hosta wilt. Try to find a fully shaded area, or at least one with only a few hours of morning sun and lots of afternoon shade. You can divide the hosta after you get it out of the ground. Use a sharp shovel or garden spade and cut it into several pieces - all pieces should have both roots and leaves attached. Then replant and water well. After they become established in their new homes you should see lots of new growth. Best wishes with your hosta! |
