How should I place hostas in terms of light and shade? I have been placing the bluer hostas in more shade and the gold ones in more light. I want to have the gold ones more gold and the blue ones stay blue longer. One of my blue ones is 'Kiwi Skyscaper' and two of my gold ones are 'Key West' and "Age of Gold'. Thanks for any advice!

Sounds right to me as long as the golds do not get enough sun to burn.

Morning sun and afternoon shade seems to work the best IMO for hostas.
As Yogi Berra said, “It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future.”
