Planting and Growing Information
Plant Sum and Substance hostas in spring in humus-rich, well-drained soil. While traditionally shade lovers, these particular hostas tolerate more sun than most varieties, especially with consistent moisture. Morning sun with afternoon shade provides ideal conditions in zones 3-8. Space plants 4-5 feet apart to accommodate their eventual spread. Flowering occurs from late spring through late summer, with the foliage remaining attractive until frost.
