I was one of the first 300 contributors to the plant database!
As this season winds down, I am looking at some sad Hosta foliage. I am curoius about whether you like to cut the spent foliage off, or leave it? I know it sort of "disintegrates" in time, and will be fine to leave.
Its just that I work as a landscape maintenance supervisor, and we have a lot of customers that prefer that we cut it down for appearance sake. I usually let mine fade away on its own without doing anything to it.
Are there any benefits to either option? Just wondering what other Hostaholics think...
