This week on Hosta La Vista: The Friendship Plant Podcast, we're joined by a true jack-of-all-trades in the hosta world—David Teager. From germinating seeds to judging show tables, David has done it all, and he’s generously shared his knowledge every step of the way.

In this episode, Betsy and Mandy dive into David’s multifaceted contributions to the hosta community. We explore his popular YouTube channel, where he breaks down the magic of growing hostas from seed, his vital role as an admin in the Hosta Diseases and Pests Facebook group, and his longtime service as an AHS show judge—now honored with the title of Judge Emeritus.

David offers practical insights, cautionary tales, and encouragement for gardeners at every stage. Whether you’re starting your first tray of seedlings or wondering what that strange spot on your leaf might be, this episode is packed with the kind of wisdom only a true hosta veteran can provide.
