[quote=Anonymous]Look up other hosta varieties that don't get that big. Generally, that's too much to fit in an 8.5 wide bed. Print off some graph paper and play around with pencil ing in circles for plants. I would go with a set of 3 shrubs that get 3 feet wide in the back, then some (about 9) perennials that are a foot or so wide and about 2 feet tall, and then an edging of small-mid hostas that are about a foot across. Include something evergreen or with berries for winter interest. It's a PITA to have to frequently prune or divide plants or move plants that were planted too close together. [/quote]
