Large, lush, variegated foliage makes the Shadowland® 'Sound of Music' Hosta an impressive addition to a landscape. This Hosta hybrid has spade-shaped, corrugated leaves. The foliage grows in a rosette form and is predominately bluish-green with swirls of chartreuse throughout. The variegation transitions to a creamy white as the growing season progresses. While the foliage is impressive, this leafy beauty also blooms. White bell-shaped flowers dangle from tall flower spikes in spring and summer.
Hostas grow well in low light and thrive in areas unsuitable for many plants. Feature this perennial underneath a shade tree or along a building or shed. Include this Hosta in a mixed bed or create a leafy mass planting. The flowers add height and attract hummingbirds. Shadowland® 'Sound of Music' Hosta is a hardy perennial that grows in zones 3 through 9.
