Throughout history, many people have made lasting contributions to the world of hostas. In these pages, we hope to pay tribute to some of them. Our concentration will be primarily on those who have introduced or registered new cultivars, found new species, promoted the genus or added to our knowledge about this, the Number One selling herbaceous perennial plant in the U.S.

So far, we have 413 biographies but we are always looking to expand these listings and to keep them up to date. So, if you would like to recommend someone for inclusion or have a new or improved picture of someone already included please EMAIL US with their name and a brief description of his or her contributions  the World of Hostas. Thanks.
