Planting & Growing

Stained Glass Hosta will grow to
be about 10 inches tall at
maturity extending to 18 inches
tall with the flowers, with a
spread of 3 feet. When grown in
masses or used as a bedding
plant, individual plants should
be spaced approximately 30
inches apart. Its foliage tends
to remain low and dense right to
the ground. It grows at a slow
rate, and under ideal conditions
can be expected to live for
approximately 10 years. As an
herbaceous perennial, this plant
will usually die back to the
crown each winter, and will
regrow from the base each
spring. Be careful not to
disturb the crown in late winter
when it may not be readily
seen!

This plant does best in partial
shade to shade. It prefers to
grow in average to moist
conditions, and shouldn't be
allowed to dry out. It is not
particular as to soil type or
pH. It is somewhat tolerant of
urban pollution. This particular
variety is an interspecific
hybrid. It can be propagated by
division; however, as a
cultivated variety, be aware
that it may be subject to
certain restrictions or
prohibitions on propagation.
