Hostas continue to be the mainstays of the shade garden and the backdrops for other smaller perennials. If given consistent even moisture, hostas can be planted in most soils in shade and will require little care thereafter. Hostas will grow into large clumps and can be easily divided and moved; plant in mass or borders for a bold effect. Aside from the varying color schemes of hosta leaves, most are green and will produce slender stalks of bell-shaped flowers by mid-summer. Both the leaves and flowers make decent cut flowers and can be used in mixed arrangements. Flowers also attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. 'Curly Fries' has slender golden leaf blades that intensify in color if placed in an area with morning or filtered sun. Leaf margins are often wavy, petioles can be speckled with red blotches, and flowers are pale lavender in color. A good miniature choice for the shade border.
