    Discover the Majestic Hosta Humpback Whale

    The Hosta Humpback Whale is a truly remarkable addition to any shade garden. This giant sized hosta forms a massive, dome-shaped mound of captivating blue-green, corrugated, heart-shaped leaves. Its striking color is most vibrant in the springtime, adding a splash of cool tones to your landscape. Blue-green scapes elegantly carry near-white, bell-shaped flowers in the early summer, providing a delicate contrast to the bold foliage. This perennial hosta is perfect for creating a lush, tranquil retreat in your outdoor space.

    Hostas are celebrated for their versatility in garden design. Their subtle colors, tall flower scapes, and broad leaves fill a unique niche that few other plants can achieve. The large leaves of the Hosta Humpback Whale provide excellent coverage for dying bulb foliage, creating a seamless and attractive garden display throughout the seasons. Furthermore, hostas thrive in city environments, tolerating air pollution from car exhaust and other urban stressors, making them an ideal choice for both suburban and urban gardens.

    Our Hosta Humpback Whale plants are grown in 5.25 x 5.25 x 5.25 inch pots, allowing them to develop robust root systems. Unlike small starter plants, ours are ready to be planted directly into your garden, providing an immediate impact. We guarantee that you will receive a true-to-type, healthy plant that you can enjoy for years to come. We are committed to providing high-quality plants and excellent customer service. During early spring, plants may still be breaking dormancy, so they may appear smaller than they will be when fully leafed out. In the fall and winter, plants may be completely dormant, with minimal to no leaves. Rest assured, they will awaken at the proper time in the spring.

    Enjoy the benefits of adding the Hosta Humpback Whale to your garden. Its large size and unique blue-green foliage create a stunning focal point, while its shade tolerance makes it perfect for those challenging areas where other plants struggle. The near-white flowers add a touch of elegance, and its perennial nature ensures years of beauty with minimal effort. It is an excellent choice for ground cover and adds value to your home and landscape.
