Hosta ‘Hadspen Blue’


Hosta

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.277.970


Hosta are among the most popular of perennials for shady areas, with hundreds of varieties now readily available. Plants form a sturdy mound of foliage, topped with lily-like blooms. This mid-sized selection has thick, rounded leaves in a deep blue-green shade. Pale lavender flowers appear in late summer. Suitable also for planting in mixed containers or tubs. Hosta go completely dormant in the fall, and the dying foliage can be removed any time before mid spring. Easily divided in either spring or fall, but plants may be left alone for years. Good slug resistance.
