Hosta ‘Wide Brim’


Hosta

 USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.278.900


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-sized selection has green leaves with a streaky ivory to creamy-yellow margin. Pale lavender flowers appear in July. Also good 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. Good slug resistance. Great for massing. While deer enjoy eating Hosta, this variety may be slightly less palatable to deer than others.
