watering

Hosta 'Undulata Erromena' should be watered deeply once per week in the spring and summer, and less frequently in fall and winter. Water until the moisture reaches the entire root zone; in other words, until you see excess water coming out of the bottom of the pot. This will help ensure that the hosta has adequate moisture for its aggressive root system. For optimal growth, check the soil before watering to ensure that it is dry down to the first inch. If it's still moist, hold off on watering for another day or 2. If any of the leaves appear wilted, provide a deep watering right away.

sunlight

Hosta 'Undulata Erromena' plants thrive in part-sun to part-shade environments. During the spring and summer months, they should receive between 2-4 hours of direct sunlight per day. In the autumn and winter months, it is best to provide no more than 2 hours of direct sunlight, as this can lead to leaf burn. It is also important to adequately water your Hosta 'Undulata Erromena' plant during these times and make sure to use a light mulch to help retain moisture in the soil.

pruning

Hosta 'Undulata Erromena' should be pruned once a year in the late winter or early spring. Pruning is important for this plant species so that it can stay healthy and look its best. Pruning should consist of deadheading any flowers, shaping the foliage, and removing any unwanted stems or foliage. It is important to be careful when pruning as hosta plants can be quite delicate. Careful and judicious pruning should also help to reduce the risk of fungal disease in the plant.
