Mulching the Hosta Garden



Last weekend, I started mulching the hosta garden. The mulch pile has gone down, but there is still plenty more mulch to move! Some gardeners advise against using mulch around hostas because it provides needed moisture for their worst enemy - slugs. But there is no way I could keep this big area looking good without doing something to keep some of the weed seeds from sprouting. I'll keep a close eye on the hostas and use some Sluggo at the first sign of slug damage.
