Hostas - discuss them with your friends and you inevitably end up talking about slugs and snails. Unless you are Alison, whose hostas grow unchallenged with not a snail in sight. For the rest of us, Vicky Meads of New Forest Hostas is a fount of knowledge. Who knew you could eat them and that a sacrificial lamb may save your hostas from snails. There is lots of information in the show notes on the website www.ourplantstories.com Presented and produced by Sally Flatman Music: Fade to Black by Howard Levy
