Another splendid Halcyon sport. This one has very glossy dark green leaves that show off their veining well. Surprisingly popular foliage plant. But not just a foliage plant, for it produces an excellent display of pale mauve flowers late in summer which look good on a big clump. Best in some shade as it tends to lose it's gloss in full sun.
Hosta ‘Devon Green’. Hosta with glossy dark green leaves and light mauve flowers in late summer.
All Hostas need some shade and few will thrive in open strong sunlight. A general rule is that the lighter foliage, the brighter the sunlight that will be tolerated. Variegated varieties tend to require more sun to keep their white, light green or gold stripes. The darker, bluer varieties need more shade.
Once established, Hostas are pretty tough and will spread horizontally to make excellent ground cover.
Grown for their decorative foliage. Form large clumps that are excellent for ground cover. Attracts humming birds in suitable geographical locations.
