Hosta 'Wiggles and Squiggles' Plantain Lily

Hosta 'Wiggles and Squiggles' stands out with exceptionally long, narrow chartreuse leaves highlighted by dramatically wavy margins. The bright foliage creates a lively texture that draws attention throughout the growing season, especially in shaded garden settings. Lavender flowers appear in midsummer, adding another layer of interest above the colorful foliage.

The low, spreading habit emphasizes the distinctive leaf shape, making this hosta an excellent choice for borders, foundation plantings, containers, and mass plantings. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit the flowers, while the foliage provides season long texture. Pair it with roses in shaded garden areas, ferns, heucheras, astilbes, and Japanese forest grass for a rich tapestry of foliage contrast.

Hardy in Zones 3 through 9, Wiggles and Squiggles grows approximately 10 inches tall and spreads 24 inches wide. Plant in part shade to full shade with average moisture and well drained soil. Morning sun can help maintain the brightest yellow foliage color, while afternoon shade protects leaves during warmer months. Easy care and cold hardy, this hosta brings reliable beauty to shaded landscapes.
