Hosta ‘Old Glory’


Hosta

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.700.590


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 medium selection from the Designer Hosta™ Collection, a group of the finest hostas available today, features gold centred, heart-shaped leaves with irregular, 3cm (1") wide, dark green margins. Light lavender flowers appear in mid 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. A sport of H. ‘Glory’ by Hans Hansen and introduced by Shady Oaks Nursery. USPP#12503: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
