More Information

Description At just 6" tall with a neat, mounded habit, 'Sun Mouse' hosta is ideal for adding excitement to small spaces! The golden foliage glows, even in shaded understories. It keeps its good looks through the seasons. Leaves may look soft as butter but are tough and durable, holding up under heat, humidity, and severe weather while resisting pesty slugs. Hostas are extremely easy to grow in pots, planters, and other containers, providing a sense of greenery on terraces and patios. Select larger pots, and combine with other shade-loving plants, like ferns and heucheras. Plant it in an area where it gets some sun during the day, and it will bring out brilliant yellow hues!

Sun Mouse Hosta

I ordered two of the Sun Mouse Hosta's and they are doing great. They have been in the ground for awhile and have put on some new growth already. They are a cute miniature size Hosta, their bright green color really makes a great addition to my shade garden

Not very hardy when arrived

I thought the plant would be bigger and in better shape. I have been giving it extra care but it isn’t growing much. I have purchased a lot of plants from you and they are doing great even with the heat.

Disappointed

A few weeks ago, I ordered 14 blue mouse ears hostas. I was so pleased. They were so healthy, I decided to order two sun mouse hostas and 4 ruby stella daylillies.

Pleased with the daylillies but not the hostas. The hosta pots were soggy. Shipped with way too much water. The hostas were uprooted and the leaves are dying. I pressed the soil to push the hostas back into the soil. Water ran out the bottom of the pots and rose up out of the soil wherever I pressed the soil. I feel sure they won't survive. The blue mouse pots had two or three hostas per pot. The sun mouse has only one which is very small and the root system is very small. So disappointed. I was going to place another order today for more daylillies and hostas, now I might order the daylillies but won't order anymore hostas.
