White Flower Farm Hosta Fireworks
Hosta Fireworks Swirls of narrow, pointed leaves -- creamy white streaked and margined with green -- flare upright, like flames. This diminutive variety, an interesting sport of 'Loyalist', grows only 8-10in high and carries light lavender ...flowers on 12in stems in midsummer. The slender foliage is uniquely upright. PP 16,062 This genus of shade lovers has 70 species, all of them from China and Japan, and hybridizers have produced hundreds of exciting crosses. Hostas have many handsome leaf colorations and lavender or white Lily-like flowers on graceful stalks. Plants prefer a moist location, but we've had a mass planting thrive for more than 30 years under a row of Sugar Maples. (In the South and West, evenly moist soil is required.) Because Hostas are grown primarily for their foliage, the figure next to "ht" is the height of the leaves, not the flowers. For more information on growing and care, click "Growing Guide." read more
