Hosta aureomarginata is a perennial plant known for its attractive foliage.
It features large, heart-shaped leaves with prominent golden-yellow margins.
The center of the leaves is a deep green color, creating a striking contrast with the yellow edges. In summer, it may produce lavender or white flowers on tall spikes.
Exposure: Prefers partial to full shade but can tolerate some morning sun.
Size: Hosta aureomarginata typically reaches a mature size of around 18 to 24 inches (45 to 60 cm) in height. The spread can be similar, creating a mounded appearance.
Soil: Well-draining, rich soil is ideal. Adding organic matter can enhance growth.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season. Avoid waterlogged conditions.
Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the plant to retain moisture and control weeds.
Fertilization: Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring.
