More Information

Description Shadowland® 'Hope Springs Eternal' hosta is a delightful addition to the garden, boasting blue heart-shaped leaves with creamy white margins. Undulations, or waves on the leaves, give the foliage an appealing texture. Don't be surprised if your hosta turns shades of green, as the color will fluctuate throughout the season. For the best color, plant it in moist soils where it receives part sun to shade.

The hostas in the Shadowland® collection from Proven Winners are vigorous growers and are more resistant to garden pests, like slugs. They're easy to grow, even in city environments, making them the perfect perennial for gardeners of any level.

Awesome Hosta

This sweet hosta is so pretty. I was amazed that it actually flowered just a short time after I planted it! Looking forward to it spreading out a bit, to add a bit of color to my garden space.

Awesome hosta

Came beautifully wrapped.
Plants not stressed at all. Waited three days for all 10 to acclimate to the climate then planted. All 10 took within a week or week and a half. Highly recommended
