Welcome to the Indianapolis Hosta Society website!
Our members are garden enthusiasts who share a love of the genus Hosta. We gather regularly to learn about gardening in both shade and sun, and with all types of plants. We work together on club and community projects, and share our gardening experiences with each other and the public.
Yearly activities of the society include presentations by local, regional, and national speakers on a variety of garden-related topics; garden tours – both local and regional; and many other fun-filled social events.
