The Gardens - Hosta Trail
Hostas are herbaceous perennial plants, meaning they die to the ground each winter. Hostas are available in hundreds of varieties, all of which flower, but they are primarily grown for their foliage. Rodents called voles eat the roots of hostas, so they are grown in containers and then placed in the ground. The Hosta Trail at MBG is one of 12 nationally certified trails in the U.S.
