Hosta ‘Don Stevens’
Plant number: 1.710.160
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 features shiny, dark green leaves with a yellow margin that turns creamy-white later in the season. Lavender-purple flowers, with red scapes, in late summer. Considered one of the finest of the Seaver introductions. 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.
