We have a small area in between our front walkway and the side of our garage where we can plant. I have been offered free hostas and mums from family members. I know hostas will work here since many of our neighbors have them.
Would hostas and orange mums together look off? We were thinking we may be able to alternated them, or plant the hostas in the middle, with orange mums on either end of the walkway. Opinions?

Hostas need shade, mums need sun. You need to match their placing to these requirements.

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
Depending on where you are, you might be okay with the hostas in the sun. I live in 6b and I have hostas in my front yard which gets full sun and they do fine. They will get really big if you don't split them, though. Same with mums, so plan the space accordingly.
Some types of hostas need shade while other types need sun. The family member giving you the hostas can tell you which type this is. Shade loving hostas die in the sun and sun loving hostas shrivel in the shade.
