Local nursery that sells many varieties of Hosta

19 years ago

Hi all! I know that there is atleast one nursery in the HV that sells Hosta of many different varieties, but I can't remember where it is...someone told me about it a few years ago and I didn't have the need at the time. Now I definately do! I'm not looking for the usual ones that you see in everyone's yards. I'm looking for all different colors and textures as I'm starting yet another garden and this one will be quite shady. The garden is about 6' wide and 100 or so feet long. I want hostas to be the main plants in this area with a variety of perinneals added in for more color. Thanks for any help.

Northern Dutchess Botanical Gardens has a hosta garden like you describe and many rare varieties - with correspondingly high prices. They are closed now, reopening next spring.
Loomis Creek has some interesting and unusual hostas - not as many as Northern Dutches but at better prices. Another good source is Claires in Patterson, NY -not quite the Hudson Valley since they are off Rt 22 in the eastern part of the area - a few miles north of I-84. Both they and Loomis Creek are open now.
