Hosta ‘Summer Music’
Plant number: 1.276.850
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 superb selection has a creamy-white centre, with a wide green border and subtle yellow streaks. Pale lavender flowers appear in June. Suitable also for planting in mixed containers or 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. Best with some sun.
