Guacamole Hostas - Summer Peak - July 2022
Over the past two seasons, I planted a total of ten Guacamole Hostas in a colony in the northside bed of our backyard. These are planted under a number of trees including a large Catalpa and a large Walnut. I planted the first three in 2020. Then last year, I tucked in seven more . Below is a photo showing how these are looking today. They've put on size and most of them are showing that two-toned foliage that Guacamole Hostas are known for in the garden. Here, below, is a photo showing this same spot 13 months ago : There are a few spots that I could tuck something else in amongst the hostas here, so that's now on my radar: companion plants. Something with a contrasting foliage and/or height seems right. I'll keep this on my list of things when I head to the nursery for Fall sales.
