AHS Hosta of the Year 2007. Lovely strong Hosta with gold centres and blue green margins, streaking back sometimes into the gold. Good substance and texture. Flowers almost pure white but can have a pinkish tinge. Will make a clump about 1m wide, and will grow in most positions.
Hosta ‘Paradigm’. Strong Hosta for most locations with blue-green leaves with yellow-green centres. White flowers, sometimes pink tinged. Clump to 1m.
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.
