Planting and Growing Information
Plant Hosta 'Liberty' in partial to full shade locations, avoiding intense afternoon sun exposure. This versatile perennial thrives in moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Hardy across USDA zones 3-8, it performs reliably throughout most of the continental United States. For best results, space plants approximately 36 inches apart to accommodate their mature spread. While deer may occasionally browse hostas, 'Liberty' shows slightly better resistance than many varieties. Expect lavender blooms to appear from late spring through late summer.
