Hosta's are not grown for their flowers but for their foliage, which are prettier than the flowers. They come in a spectrum of blues, golds, greens, yellows and whites as well as variegated, some speckled and others striped. They thrive in the shade, even though they can withstand some sun, are long-lived and low-maintenance. Many Hosta varieties have seasonal color or can change color depending on growing conditions. While there are over 3,000 cultivars to choose from, we offer some of the more extra-ordinary each unique in color, texture and form. Hosta sieboldiana grows into a spreading foliage mound, with thick, puckered, cupped, wide-oval green leaves with distinctive veining. leaves emerge smoky-blue in spring, funnel shaped, with mostly white flowers appearing in summer.
