Hosta - Sleeping Beauty
Hosta Sleeping Beauty, Hosta 'Sleeping Beauty', is a sport of the award winning Hosta 'Halcyon' and is one of our favorites! The pointed, frosty blue-green leaves are complemented by a lovely creamy margin.  Hosta 'Sleeping Beauty' is a superb grower with thick, slug resistant foliage; pale lavender blue flowers appear in mid-summer.  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. 'Sleeping Beauty'' is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as specimen or edging plant. 'Sleeping Beauty is a handsome plant, slug resistant with a wonderful blue color, and will fill in your shaded space very nicely! * Blue-green hosta * Thick leaves * Superb grower

Hosta - Deja Blu - DetailsHosta - Deja Blu - Sale Price: $39.95
Hosta Deja Blu, Hosta 'Deja Blu', is an intriguing new sport of Hosta 'Blue Boy'.  It has blue-green foliage, with a cream lightning bolt, that dances between the center of the leaf and the chartreuse green margin.  The four colored leaves are very striking! Being the bluest hosta in your garden, it will produce light lavender flowers that add even more color to this plant in mid-summer.  It is a low care perennial that is ideal for a slightly sunny area. This hosta grows 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. 'Deja Blu' needs high-filtered or dappled sunlight which is necessary for clean, healthy growth.   Morning sun is tolerable and will help to intensify the leaf colors, but hot afternoon sun is usually deadly to hostas!  Hostas also grow well in city environments where the air may be polluted by car exhaust, etc. With each leaf showing off four bright colors, 'Deja Blu' becomes quite an impressive hosta! * Low maintenance * Bluest hosta * Mounded habit
