White Flower Farm NEW! Hosta Spartacus
These thick, rippled leaves -- margined in yellow with soft, medium green centers -- form a dense mound, luminous in morning sun. Expect pale lavender bells in midsummer on 36in stems. Good companions include Digitalis grandiflora and Hakon...echloa macra 'All Gold' and 'Aureola'. 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." NEW!
