Hosta
HOSTA GOLDEN SCULPTURE
SKU: 250-10
These seeds are from 'Golden Sculpture' Hosta! A HUGE gold-leaved hosta with thick dimpled and puckered foliage!
Hostas are a garden staple. They add a tropical and fresh look to the and draw the eye with their stand-out leaves. Hostas are versatile, rarely need to be watered, and 'behave' in their tidy clumps.
One interesting thing about Hosta plants, is that they will keep growing as long as they have light. This means, that if you want to speed-up hosta growth during the growing season, artificial lighting (increasing the day length) can help you get your hosta plants bigger, faster! Be sure to allow you plants to acclimatize back to regular lighting later in the season (and plant them in the ground), so they will go dormant in the winter.
Type: Perennial
Location: part or part sun
Hardiness zones: 3-8
Height: 28-42" tall leaves, and 36-56" tall flower spikes
Seed size: Hosta seeds are long, flat and black. As these seeds are from the biggest hosta plants, they produce the biggest seeds, averaging about 7-10 mm long, and about 3 mm wide. Hosta seeds are a bit like a maple seed, or "key". There is a slightly bigger end which is the fertile seed, and there is a "wing", which allows it to blow, and catch the wind. Some hosta seeds will have broken wings, though this will not affect the ability of the fertile end of the seed to grow. We usually add a few extra seeds per pack also. Be sure to view our seed images. The seeds are interesting!
