Hosta Premium Blend Plantain Lily

Hosta Premium Blend showcases a stunning mix of shade-loving perennials, each selected for their striking foliage. With heights ranging from 18 to 36 inches, this blend features a diverse array of leaf shapes, textures, and patterns in a range of blues, golds, greens, yellows, and whites, as well as variegated varieties. In midsummer, the plants send up slender scapes bearing pale lavender, funnel-shaped flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds. These blooms also add a soft touch to mixed floral arrangements.

A mix of Hosta species, commonly called plantain lily, this Premium Blend is a collection of hardy perennials that thrive in Zones 3-9. Renowned for their longevity and adaptability, hostas form symmetrical, mounding clumps that expand over time, returning each year bigger and better. Perfect for ground covers, they create a tapestry of texture and color when massed or grouped in drifts. Their versatility extends to borders, foundations, containers, and woodland gardens. They pair beautifully with spring bulbs, quickly filling in the gaps left by fading bulb foliage.

Hostas are as easy to care for as they are beautiful. They thrive in dappled to full shade with rich, moist, well-draining soil and a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Although tolerant of a range of soil types, they appreciate consistent moisture and should not be allowed to dry out. An annual application of slow-release fertilizer ensures lush growth and vibrant leaves.

Plant Premium Blend hosta roots in spring, spacing them 18 to 36 inches apart and burying them 1½ to 2 inches deep.
