Hostas are an old favorite in the perennial garden, with good reason: They’re reliable, long-lived shade-loving plants that come in an array of pretty hues from chartreuse to blue-green.
Hostas are herbaceous perennial plants, growing from rhizomes which are sometimes stoloniferous, [10] with broad lanceolate or ovate leaves varying widely in size by species from 1–18 in (2.5–45.7 cm) long and 0.75–12 in (2–30 cm) broad. The smallest varieties are called miniatures.
Hostas in the 'Undulata' group include an all-green cultivar, 'Undulata Erromena'; a white-edged cultivar, 'Undulata Albomarginata'; and white-centered (medio-variegated) cultivars that may be grouped according to the amount of white in the leaf. The typical H. 'Undulata' has a wide white center, wider than the green of the margins.
