Hosta 'Majesty', 1L
£7.00
notes
This large plantain lily bears green leaves with a wide yellow margin that matures to cream. These leaves twist and fold, presenting a wonderful visual statement, perfect for interest in a shady area. In late summer, flowers of the palest lilac held on long stems add to its appeal. Clump forming, the perennial looks great in a shady border but will also perform well as a specimen in a container. Supplied in biodegradable pot made from waste coir and natural latex.

Insights
Hostas are woodland plants and, as such, thrive in a shady spot away from direct sun, sheltered away from cold winds, with soil that does not dry out. Keep an eye for snails and slugs who are rather partial to its luscious leaves.
