Hosta - Satisfaction
Hosta - Satisfaction The Hosta Satisfaction, Hosta 'Satisfaction', is an incredibly spectacular and dramatic gold-edged sport of Hosta Piedmont Gold. 'Satisfaction' is bordered by wide leaf margins that are light green at first, and then turn bright gold in early summer. The gold margins get to be about 2 wide at maturity; near white flowers top the clump in mid-summer. ‘Satisfaction' is a low mounded and stunning hosta. It will have an impact on any area of your shade garden, and the margins turn cream if placed in a sunny location! 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. ‘Satisfaction' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. Because of its brilliant colors, 'Satisfaction' is one of the most show stopping hostas in any garden! * Stunning plant * Easy to grow * Low mounding habit
