Shredded hostas #871427

Asked June 03, 2024, 8:34 PM EDT

We had a hail storm last evening, and this morning I found that my hosta leaves are shredded. No intact leaves remain. What should I do with them?

Hi Ann,

I'm sorry, this is really sad when you love your garden. The plants need to photosynthesize and I'd leave the plants alone for now.

Here's more information on hosta info under the "perennials" section here:

Good luck.
