Hosta ‘Night Before Christmas’
Plant number: 1.277.670
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 medium-size selection has huge, dark green leaves with creamy-white centres that change to pure white by summer. Pale lavender flowers appear mid to late summer which may attract hummingbirds. Suitable for planting in mixed containers and 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. Slugs may need to be controlled. While deer enjoy eating Hosta, this variety may be slightly less palatable to deer than others. Sport of H. ‘White Christmas’.
