Hostas for Your Shade Garden

Volume 8, Issue 13      April, 2008

Hosta 'Liberty' PP#12,531

Hostas: With its ease of growth, variety of plant shapes and sizes available, and diversity of leaf colorations, Hosta is one of the most desirable perennials for gardens with partial to full shade. In the landscape, the foliage can provide a bold presence while softening the appearance of well defined areas.

Hosta 'Liberty' PP#12,531: Hosta 'Liberty' PP#12,531 is a gorgeous sport of Hosta 'Sagae' with very wide creamy yellow margins that fade to creamy white later in the season. Lavender flowers in early summer. A Garden Crossings favorite and a real attention getter!

Hosta Uses in the Garden
Hosta are commonly used as accent or specimen plants, in woodland gardens or rock gardens, in borders, and as edging plants, groundcovers or mass plantings. They are also commonly used in patio pots or smaller cultivars can be utilized as components in mixed containers. The flower spikes make fine additions to cut flower arrangements. When blooming they attract hummingbirds into the garden. These tough plants are also resistant to rabbit feeding.

We have recently published our Hosta Care page for detailed information on caring for your new Hosta plants.
