Abba Dabba Do, Alakazam and Blueberry Muffin

Garden Gate episode with Dawn of Gardens Plus


Abba Dabba Do, Alakazam, Blueberry Muffin, Dance With Me, Holy Mouse Ears... these words don’t sound like they have anything in common... but they do!

In June I visited with Dawn Golloher of Gardens Plus just outside of Peterborough. Dawn is a Hosta fanatic! She has hundreds of varieties of hostas and ships them all over North America!

Hostas are great plants for the shade. They are very tough and fairly easy to grow. Many of the newer varieties have thicker leaves so slugs are generally not a problem. There are giant hostas as well as miniature hostas.
