Are your hostas shooting up stems with flowers. Should you leave them or cut them? Let's discuss:)

Our hummingbirds love the flowers. I won a contest with my picture of a hummingbird on the flower

Mine too! I would love to see that photo! I left most of mine this year and removed the flowers/stems after they started to go by.

It is really important to sterilize tools in between each different plant to prevent spread of HVX or other hosta diseases.

But what about when they're fragrant? I've planted mostly fragrant ones specifically for that.

Oh I bet they are lovely! Enjoy them for as long as you can… hosta life is short:). Thank you for watching and commenting…

@@mymainegardens Well, they WILL be hopefully...babies just put in this year! 😁But your advice was super helpful for the giant one my mother planted at least a decade ago. Thanks!

I prefer to cut them all out for aesthetics and my wife wants me to leave them so I’m going to tell her the American hosta association advises cutting them out!
