Lemon Lime is easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in part shade to full shade. It thrives best in a rich, moist soil in light, dappled shade. Lemon Lime is a dependable and versatile perennial requiring little care. Gardeners choose it mostly for its beautiful foliage which provides color, contrast and texture to the landscape. The dense foliage crowds out most garden weeds. This hosta can be mixed with other perennials in the border or used as an edging plant, in mass, or can be divided to create a dense ground cover.
