I always thought Hostas are better in pots to protect them a bit from slugs, they like the shade too

There are so many different Hostas. I have one called blue mouse ears which is realy small, patriot that is a medium size. Then there is the biggest one which is Called Emporess Wu, which I don't have space for, as it's enormous.

A few little tips - 1) when doing hanging baskets and wall planters - put a disposable nappy (or 2 depending on size of planter) plastic side down in the bottom of the basket or planter.
