Doug Beilstein first noticed hostas more than sixteen years ago.  Since then, he has developed a keen interest and appreciation for the "friendship plant".  This interest led him to invest in thousands of hostas and, more recently, to devote his efforts to hybridizing them.  In 2003, Doug and Mardy Beilstein started HostaWorks in order to share the fruits of their labors with other hosta enthusiasts. 

Our latest development is our new website, www.hostaworks.com, which opened for business in Fall 2007.  For now, we will just be offering seeds for sale once a year (in November).  To go to the list of seeds available this year, please go to our SEEDS 2009 page.

In addition to the seed list, we've also compiled a number of other photographs of the property.  We hope you'll enjoy them! 

Several of Doug's plants are now registered with the American Hosta Society.  To view these plants, please see our REGISTERED PLANTS page.

Thanks for visiting www.hostaworks.com!
