Hosta

Now this is certainly a little different from our normal fare, as Hosta are very much shade loving plants, that thrive in areas of the garden that many other plants will not tolerate. With their colourful, often variegated leaves, they brighten up these shady garden areas. Very easy to grow, their biggest problem is that the slugs and snails love them! Aside of the usual slug remedies, growing in pots will help, as will planting into an area that has a gravel around the base of the plant, as that also deters slugs
