About the Hosta -
Lancifolia :
The Hosta ‘Lancifolia’ was reported to be the
first Hosta in America. The oval to lance-shaped,
shiny green and slightly wavy foliage, makes this
variety very striking. The dark purple flowers bloom
from July to August, however, Hosta’s are not known
only for their flowers. With a plant height of 12”
and a spread of 32-36”, Hosta’s provide bright color
in shade with wonderful foliage. Hosta ‘Lancifolia’
needs to be planted in a full shade area in any
moist, well-drained area. This low care perennial is
ideal for shady positions, tubs and patio pots, and
one of the most popular for landscape uses. A great
choice for any beginner gardener. |
