'June' Hosta

Its heart-shaped leaves are variegated with blue-green margins and yellow-green centers, contrasting beautifully with lavender bell-shaped flowers that hover high above the plant. ‘June’ hosta is also relatively drought-tolerant, adding to its ease of care. Hostas love the shade; try planting this tidy plant underneath trees with other hostas, hardy ferns, or other shade-loving plants. Its adorably small mound-like habit creates an easy-to-manage sea of blue-green hues suitable for any mini space in the garden.
