Time in a Bottle Hosta Care

Hosta plants are known as shade-loving plants, but this leafy beauty needs about 4 hours of sunlight per day. A spot that receives morning sun and afternoon shade is ideal. The Time in a Bottle Hosta can live in average soil but expect the best results when grown in rich soil that is acidic to neutral. The soil should be moist and allow drainage. Water consistently for the first year, and after establishing, water Time in a Bottle only during an extended dry spell. Apply a layer of organic mulch to retain moisture and support the plant. Feed Time in a Bottle Hosta each spring using a balanced, slow-release fertilizer.

Remove dead or damaged growth as it appears. The flower stalks can be removed when the flowers fade to maintain a tidy look.

Divide the Time in a Bottle Hosta as needed in the spring or fall.
