Hosta ‘Faith’


Hosta

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.700.350


Hosta are among the most popular of perennials for shady areas, with hundreds of varieties now readily available. Plants form sturdy mounds of foliage, topped with lily-like blooms. This midsized selection has rounded, almost heart-shaped, heavily corrugated, glowing yellow-gold leaves that are slightly cupped and come to a sharp point. Near-white flowers appear in June. Mature clumps form a tight mound and are quite impressive. Excellent for massing or using as a specimen. A vigorous grower that shows its best colour when grown in morning sun or bright filtered shade. Hosta go completely dormant in the fall, and the dying foliage can be removed any time before mid-spring. Clumps may be easily divided in the spring or fall. Registered by D. Dean in 1999.
