Theme: "How Does Your Garden Grow?"

This hosta show will feature many varieties of hosta leaves, displayed side-by-side and judged by American Hosta Society Master Judges. Blue Ribbon winners typify the registered characteristics of each variety. In addition to the cut leaves, there will be artistic arrangements featuring hosta leaves and container grown hostas, as well as educational displays and hosta culture information. Hostas are amazingly adaptable plants that lend themselves to many types of displays. Here is a chance to see both classic and the newest varieties.
