Aureomarginata Plantain LilyHosta 'Aureomarginata'
Height: 50-55 cm Width: 90-120 cm Zone: 2 Exposure: Part shade to shade Bloom time: Mid Summer Attracts hummingbirds
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 heart-shaped green leaves with a streaky ivory to creamy-yellow margin. Bright purple 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. Highly regarded.
