There are so many varieties of hosta available, it’s certainly worth trying to find some you could use. This article on hostas brings up several points: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/foliage/hosta/growing-hosta-plants.htm ^[1]
Look for lighter colored varieties, and talk to independent plant store and nursery people to get their recommendations. I would advise trying only a few plants at first, to see what works best.
