How to fertilize Siebold's Plantain Lily
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Siebold's Plantain Lily after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Burned yellowing Leaves I've never had a Hosta before. Bought it at Costco where they had it outside. I bought it for my front porch but after a couple days I could tell the leaves were burning in this after 3pm Texas sun so l brought her in. For the first time I truly can't figure out a plant. I tried to prune and clip then water but I just don't know how she needs to be loved.

Rookie here. I’ve had this Plantain Lily for probably a year now and there hasn’t been any new growth or growth at all that I’ve noticed! Repotted in this pot maybe 6 months ago and I feel like it’s too big? Added the grow light a couple months ago but my plant still just looks sad. Any tips are gladly welcomed!!!! #PlantainLily

Wrong location? Hi guys I’m kinda new at this. I got a hosta a few weeks ago from a local plant store and when I did some research it told me to keep it inside with very low light. But today when I downloaded this app it told me to take it outside and keep it in bright direct light. I really don’t want to kill my baby so does anyone have any experience with what would work best?

I’ve been trying to distinguish the Plantain Lily from the Hosta Francee (not listed), and suji-giboshi. Some show the light colors through the center, others have an outline. But photos of both are in both. Is there a way to add “Hosta Francee” to the Plantain Lily description? #Hosta
