GUACAMOLE HOSTA 2gal

Yes, it’s really called ‘Guacamole’ Hosta, and it brings a fresh, zesty look to the garden that absolutely lives up to its name! You’ll love the giant, heart-shaped leaves with their bright, chartreuse-gold centers and neatly defined dark green margins. This hosta is a fantastic grower, quickly forming a generous mound 2 feet tall by 4 feet wide that truly brightens up shady spots. What really sets it apart is its surprising sun tolerance; it actually enjoys a few hours of morning sun to make its colors pop, as long as it gets shade from the harsh afternoon heat. But the best secret comes in late summer when it sends up tall stalks of large, incredibly fragrant white flowers. Happily, our local deer, javelina, and rabbits tend to skip this tasty-looking meal, making it a reliable and rewarding performer in our mountain landscapes.
