Not only does it look stunning, but it also attracts butterflies and hummingbirds with its lovely pale purple flowers that bloom in the middle of summer. This shade perennial thrives in moist, well-drained soil and its unique puckered, deeply ridged leaves make it a standout in shade gardens and mixed container plantings. The best part is that it establishes itself in just one year, making it a low-maintenance choice for shady areas – no digging or dividing required!

Planting Instructions:

1. Plant Hosta bulbs in the spring after the ground has thawed and there is no longer danger of frost.

3. Dig a hole in loosened soil 6″ deep. Place the bulb in the hole with the roots/tubers down and any sprouts facing up. Space each bulb 12” apart.

4. Cover with soil and water well so that the soil above the bulbs settles. Keep soil moist during periods of dry weather but do not overwater.
