Hosta ‘Golden Tiara’


Hosta

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.278.350


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 smaller selection has rounded leaves, green with a creamy edging, heavily streaked in chartreuse. Deep-lavender flowers appear in July. Excellent for edging. 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. While deer enjoy eating Hosta, this variety may be slightly less palatable to deer than others.
