Nothing beats the variety of colours, textures, and height that hostas can bring to a shade garden.
This lush, foliage dense perennial has captured the eyes of gardeners and landscape designers for many generations. The variability of hostas is endless. Their foliage will give your garden splashes of green (Royal Standard), blue (Humpback Whale), yellow (August Moon), white (Minuteman) and just about any combination of any, or all of these, on just one plant!
There are miniature versions (School Mouse, Church Mouse, Sun Mouse) which make great additions to container gardens and small spaces. There are medium-sized plants (Popcorn, Wheee!, Hudson’s Bay, Paradigm) if you are looking to fill an area under a shade tree or back corner of your yard.
Do you have a large space to fill? Try planting a specimen sized selection (Krossa Regal, Earth Angel, Wu-La-La) to fill the void.
At Sheridan Nurseries, we grow over 60 different varieties of hosta. From the tiny Pandora’s Box (which only grows to 10 cm tall) to magnificent Empress Wu (which grows to an impressive 90 cm+ tall).
