If you are new to growing hostas, you should know that hostas require a period of dormancy and quite cool temperatures in winter. As others have said, some will last longer in autumn than others, but all of mine were gone several weeks ago and the last few weeks, they don't look their best. If yours was newly planted this season, if would benefit from some mulch over the winter, but look for it to re-emerge bigger and better in spring.
