Hosta, Sting

Hosta sieboldiana

$29.99

Outdoor Plant Size

Back for the 2026 season.

A showy, compact mound of thick, dark green foliage is swirled with creamy white flamed centers. Summer brings lavender flowers on thick stocks about 6” above the foliage. Across growing zones, Hosta are very forgiving and long-lived. Plant in well-draining soil for a great no-fuss perennial. Hosta Sting will provide a burst of tropical-like foliage. Hosta thrive in shade, even in competition with tree roots, hurray! Lush foliage in diverse colors, heights, and texture. It is hard to find a garden that won’t benefit from incorporating some Hosta.
