Hosta fortunei var. albopicta f. aurea

A compact clump-forming perennial with broad, striking, creamy-yellow heart-shaped leaves 20-25cm in length which fade later to dull green. Funnel-shaped mauve flowers in summer are borne on leafy stems to 75cm in length. Jul-Aug. H75cm S60cm.

Care Instructions

Hostas will grow in any fertile, moisture-retentive garden soil, but thin sands and heavy clays are best improved before planting. A spring mulch is beneficial. Best in shade or partial shade but can tolerate sun as long as the soil is moist. Makes an excellent contrast with ferns at the edge of a woodland or shady border.
