Hostas are exceedingly popular perennials 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. These plants also grow well in urban environments where the air may be affected by car exhaust, demonstrating their hardiness and adaptability. Our plants are grown in 5.25 x 5.25 x 5.25 inch pots and develop large root systems. These are not a small liner or starter but a plant you can put right into your garden, ensuring you get a bigger, healthier plant right away compared to a starter plant. We guarantee you will receive a true-to-type, healthy plant that you will love for years. If you have any problems or questions, we are happy to help. During early spring, plants may still be breaking dormancy, so they may appear smaller than they will be when they fully leaf out. During winter or fall, the plants may be completely dormant.
