Hosta Much More Sparse Than In Previous Years

Question From: MARYLAND
Q: I see many less hosta spikes coming up this spring than the last 2-3 years. What could be the problem? They have been very lush these past years so I'm stumped.

A:

Hot, dry weather has taken its toll. A hand full of good organic fertilizer, followed by a couple of inches of organic mulch will give them a boost. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
