Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Hosta 'Remember Me' is a beautiful white centered selection of Hosta 'June'.  The small mounds of creamy white foliage with blue-green margins make excellent plants for smaller areas or in front of the border.  'Remember Me' demonstrates many of the same outstanding qualities of 'June', like good slug resistance and thick healthy foliage.  Lavender flowers add additional beauty to this hosta! Hostas grow best in moist, well-drained, highly organic soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5.  Sandy loam is better than clay because it provides more aeration for the roots.  It is best to keep areas around hostas clear of excess leaf debris to reduce the presence of slugs and snails.  Plant this low care plant in an area that receives the right amount of light.  The leaves need some morning sun to bring out the best coloration; too much sun will burn the leaves.  'Remember Me' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. 'Remember Me’ honors not only Sandy, but the thousands of women who fight this life threatening disease every day! * Slug resistance * Thick foliage * Small mounded habit
