Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. Space 24–36 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch 2–3 inches deep.

Care Tips

Water consistently throughout the season- adequate moisture is essential for healthy, lush growth. Monitor for slugs and snails, especially in wet conditions. The large, bright chartreuse-green to golden leaves are most vivid with some morning sun- deeper shade dulls the color. Cut back all foliage in late fall after frost. Divide every 4–5 years in spring if desired. Fertilize lightly in spring. A large, bold hosta with outstanding, luminous foliage color that brightens shaded borders beautifully.
