Three colors grace the large mound of leaves that grow on the shade-loving Shadowland Hudson Bay Hosta. In summer, cream-colored flowers appear, complementing the white centers of this hosta's large, showy leaves. It's an all-season colorful, easy-care perennial. You're bound to love this hosta and how rapidly it grows to reach its mature size and full color.
A plant like this one should appear in your garden simply for the sake of its unique and showy foliage of white, bright green and muted blue. For full effect, you'll want many more than one Shadowland Hudson Bay Hostas in your landscape. Shadowland grows to about 2 feet high, so it's a great choice for year-round borders along walkways, driveways, trees or garden beds. If you don't have room for a group of these variegated-foliage shade lovers, try one as a container filler. Shadowland Hudson Bay Hosta is cold hardy to zone 3 and can take heat up to zone 9.
Shadowland Hudson Bay Hosta Care
Plant the Hudson hosta in a location that receives at least partial shade. The plant also grows in full shade. Hostas love neutral or acidic soil and are easy to care for. As long as your Shadowland Hudson Bay Hosta grows in fairly fertile soil, you don't need to fertilize it. If you want to use fertilizer, choose a flow-release formula. The only pruning your plant needs is removal of yellowed, dead or damaged leaves and cutting off stalks after blooms wilt.
Shadowland Hudson Bay Hosta Spacing
Be sure to give your hosta plenty of room to grow in container arrangements. For borders and mass plantings, space your Shadowland Hostas 20 to 24 inches apart from one center to the next.
