Hosta, Brim Cup

This small hosta gleams like a beacon. Round to heart-shaped, cupped leaves of mid-green is edged with very wide, irregular, creamy chartreuse to white margins. The foliage becomes stiff and seer-suckered when mature--plants for nice clumps 12 inches wide. Pale lavender flowers appear in midsummer. Tolerates up to 3/4 day sun. Ht: 8-12". Hostas: Zones 3-8. These hardy perennials are ideal for ground covers, low borders, edgings, and around the base of trees. They prefer good organic matter content in the soil for water retention.
