There are about 40 different species of hostas which are native to Japan, China, and Korea. They were brought to the U.S. in the 19th century and there are now about 7,000 named cultivars.

About 30 members boarded the bus for a fun and exciting day of hosta viewing and shopping at Hillsboro Hosta and Uniquely Hostas. Once again, members filled the lower luggage level of the bus with hostas, companion plants, and other assorted garden ornament purchases. Thank goodness Larry drove himself as that huge chicken he bought would have taken up a lot of valuable plant space on the lower bus level! Our thanks to our bus driver (she also drove us last year) – we are making steady progress towards turning her into a true hostaholic.
