Hosta - Regal Supreme - Sale Price: $42.75 The Hosta Regal Supreme, Hosta 'Regal Supreme', displays its wavy, attractive frosty blue leaves on an upright vase-shaped plant.  Each leaf has a wide creamy yellow margin. As the summer progresses, the leaves’ colors change to blue-green with wide, creamy white margins.  This exciting hosta is topped by lavender flowers in mid through late summer on very tall scapes; hummingbirds will come often to visit! 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.  'Regal Supreme' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. Use this medium sized 'Regal Supreme' in mass plantings for a very colorful groundcover! * Vase shaped form * Frosty blue leaves * Attracts hummingbirds
