More Information About The Hosta Adventure from the AHS:
This second edition of The Hosta Adventure: A Grower’s Guide has been revised extensively and offers up-to-date information about the ‘Friendship Plant’. Included for the first time are tips on landscaping and growing miniatures. What’s more, the guide is illustrated with dozens of dazzling new pictures of classic and cutting-edge cultivars. 

Chapters feature basic hosta information, landscaping with hostas, how on buy hostas, planting and growing hostas, propagation methods, common hosta problems and new hosta introductions. They were written by many of your friends in the hosta world: C.H. Falstad III, Tom Micheletti, Warren Pollock, George Schmid, Mike Shadrack, Bob Solberg and Larry Tucker, who edited the guide. The chapters are illustrated with pictures from an array of photographers. Janet Mills, who designs the Amercan Hosta Society’s popular The Hosta Journal, assembled it all.

First published in 2001, the Hosta Adventure was intended as a guide for novices, but it appealed to all levels of hosta gardeners. Over the past seven years, AHS has sold out its inventory of 25,000. Now a new Adventure beckons.

This publication should be part of every hosta grower’s library.
