Hosta 'August Moon'

Plantain Lily

  • Category: Perennials
  • Hardiness Zone: 3
  • Height: 20 Inches
  • Spread: 42 Inches
  • Bloom Color: Lavender

Large corrugated chartreuse leaves are heart-shaped and will become more golden in full sun, which this hosta can happily handle. Its beefy substance makes it more slug-resistant. In mid-to-late summer, it shoots out two-foot-tall scapes of lavender flowers. This beauty is a staff favorite and the inspiration for naming one of our original greenhouse cats, August!
