Hosta, Hydrangea and a Hillside | Volunteer Gardener

One sign of a true gardener is that they can always make room for one more plant that catches their eye. That’s the case here--the gardens have expanded. We stroll a shady backyard with tranquil sitting spots to enjoy the many hosta and hydrangea.
The Hosta Popularity Poll 2013 is a summation of the favorite hosta varieties as voted on by members of the Middle Tennessee Hosta Society.

Beautiful shade garden with all the variations of hostas. I specially love the water features, mainly the fifty foot stream. Your garden is just stunning and brings joy to my heart.

Wonderful. Nice to see the use of moss too. How does she keep the hostas free from slugs and snails?

The fact that bamboo stands die after 100 years of the mother stand being imported to the USA from Asia is music to my ears. i hope mine begins to flower and die soon. i made such a mistake planting it in various locations in my garden! It has become so invasive and damaging to many parts of the yard and garden.
