Guacamole Hosta earns its name with big, glossy leaves in soft apple-green, each one framed by a deeper green margin that sharpens the contrast as the season unfolds. Unusually adaptable for a hosta, it welcomes everything from morning sun to shade, making it one of the easiest ways to brighten a wide range of spots in the garden. Tall flower spikes rise above the foliage in summer and carry a sweet fragrance that’s a lovely detail near a patio or walkway. Forming a generous clump 12 to 18 inches tall and up to two feet wide, it looks wonderful massed as a ground cover or anchoring the front of a shaded border. It appreciates steady, moderate moisture and returns reliably each year, shrugging off cold winters with ease. Pair it with ferns and darker-leaved hostas for a layered, textural display.
