Hosta Autumn Frost
Featuring thick creamy yellow margins, Autumn Frost Hosta glows in the shade garden. Foliage emerges steel blue with bright yellow edges, as the foliage matures the edges mellow out to a banana-yellow. Light lavender flowers bloom in summer. Its thick foliage is more resistant to slugs and rabbits than other varieties.
Hostas are excellent perennials for shade that require minimal care. They are lovely massed in woodland settings or used as specimens. With their weed smothering foliage, they make idea ground covers. Although they are tough plants that can withstand periods of drought, for best results keep well watered during dry spells.
