STAINED GLASS HOSTA 1gal

Transform your shaded garden spots into a radiant wonderland with 'Stained Glass' Hosta! This award-winning variety boasts large, glossy, heart-shaped leaves that truly live up to their name, featuring brilliant golden-chartreuse centers edged with deep green. The prominent veins give them an almost translucent, stained-glass appearance that shimmers in filtered light. In late summer, delicate spikes of fragrant, pale lavender flowers emerge above the foliage, adding another layer of beauty and attracting hummingbirds.

'Stained Glass' Hosta forms a lush mound, typically reaching about 15 inches tall and spreading 3 to 4 feet wide, making it ideal for borders, mass plantings, or even containers. While many hostas prefer deep shade, 'Stained Glass' is more sun-tolerant than most, thriving in partial to full shade where it receives morning sun or dappled light throughout the day. This enhanced sun tolerance helps intensify its vibrant leaf colors. Good news for gardeners in areas with wildlife: 'Stained Glass' Hosta is considered more deer and rabbit resistant than many other Hosta varieties, though hungry animals may still nibble.

For optimal growth, plant your 'Stained Glass' Hosta in well-drained, organically rich soil. When planting, we always recommend blending Watters Premium Mulch with your garden's native soil. This will improve soil structure, conserve moisture, and naturally suppress weeds, giving your Hosta a healthy foundation. For a robust start and continued vitality, mix in Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food during planting. This local formula, enriched with cottonseed meal and bird guano, provides a steady supply of nutrients, ensuring lush foliage and bountiful blooms.
