Hosta 'Ginko Craig'
White Edged Hosta, Plantain Lily, Funkia
| These are the most dramatic and versatile of all foliage herb perennials. Their leaves are green to yellow to blue-green in color and range from finger-length to large frisbee in size. There are approximately 36 clump-forming species with more than 1000 cultivars and hybrids. Extremely hardy and long-lived, most thrive in shade. However, several varieties grow in full sun except in hot summer climates. Their roots compete against well-established plants. Easily transplanted and divided, Hosta's only weaknesses are slugs and snails in mild winter climates. |
This 12-inch-tall plant has light green, lance-shaped leaves with a thin band of bright white. Its striking lilac flowers stand well above the foliage.
