Product information

Hostas, also known as Plantain Lilies, are classic shade-loving perennials prized for their bold, decorative foliage. Available in shades of green, blue, and variegated patterns, they bring texture, colour, and structure to shady borders, underplanting, and mixed beds—especially in areas where many other plants struggle to thrive. Perfectly suited to UK growing conditions, Hostas are hardy and reliable, returning each spring and thriving through the growing season. They tolerate damp, shaded spots and flourish in partial to full shade, making them an excellent choice for woodland gardens, north-facing beds, or beneath trees. Compact and adaptable, Hostas are also ideal for pots and containers, where their lush foliage can brighten patios, pathways, and garden edges. In Summer, tall spikes of lavender or white blooms emerge above the leaves, adding vertical interest and attracting bees and other pollinators. Whether you're planting in a formal border or creating a tranquil shaded retreat, Hostas pair effortlessly with ferns, astilbe, heuchera, and other shade-loving companions to create a lush, layered look.
