Through the years I've tried just about everyone for bulbs but A.D.R. is tops. It's a family run business and the service levels and expertise are as good as the product they sell. My clients rave about the results we get with A.D.R. and that makes me happy.

Hosta 'Blue Angel' is a large, shade-loving perennial with thick, heavily textured, blue-green leaves that form a cascading mound. In mid to late summer, pale lavender to white, bell-shaped flowers rise above the foliage, attracting hummingbirds while maintaining strong slug resistance. Thriving in part shade to full shade, this low-maintenance hosta tolerates dry soils once established and is ideal for borders, woodland gardens, and underplanting shrubs.

Planting: Plant in early spring or fall. Soak roots in water for 3–6 hours before planting. Dig a hole wide enough to spread the roots, form a small mound in the center, and drape roots over it. Set the crown just below soil level and backfill firmly. Space 18 to 30 inches apart depending on variety.
Location: Partial to full shade is ideal. Some varieties tolerate morning sun, but avoid hot afternoon exposure.
Soil: Moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Enrich with compost or leaf mold.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during establishment. Once established, hostas are moderately drought-tolerant but benefit from regular watering in dry spells.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–9. No winter protection needed in most climates.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a balanced fertilizer in spring. Avoid high-nitrogen formulas that encourage soft, slug-prone growth.
Pruning: Remove spent flower stalks and yellowing leaves. Cut back to the ground in late fall or early spring.
Propagation: Divide clumps every 3–5 years in spring or fall to rejuvenate and multiply.
Pest & Disease: Watch for slugs, snails, and foliar nematodes. Use barriers or organic deterrents and maintain good air circulation.
