Produce a detailed written description of a serene scene outside a farmland glade with stalks, hostas, and a river.

The earth falls sharply downward from this perfect diving spot to dip its peaty edge in the river. The bank leading to the river below is moist and fertile, making it an ideal home to a wide variety of hostas. Most have variegated leaves of green streaked with yellow or gold, while others are nearly blue with blotchy patterns of white. In spring, the leafy, low-growing plants send up tall spindly stalks that bloom in purple, white and orange.
