Hosta 'June'

Common Name: Hosta

  • A sport of 'Halcyon'
  • Pointed, ovate leaves have distinct, beautiful variegation
  • Leaves have wide, streaked, blue-green margins and chartreuse centers in spring. Leaf center becomes medium to light gold in summer with enough sun exposure, but will remain chartreuse in full shade
  • Leaves are of heavy substance and are slug-resistant
  • Pale bluish-lavender flowers appear on 20" scapes in mid to late summer

Hostas are exceedingly popular perennials in today's gardens due to their versatility in the landscape. Their subtle colors, tall flower scapes, and broad, coarse leaves fill a niche in garden designs that few other plants can achieve. Their large leaves provide excellent coverage for dying bulb foliage. Hostas also grow well in city environments where the air may be polluted by car exhaust, etc.
