June Hosta features dainty spikes of bluish-lavender bell-shaped flowers, on 20 inch scapes, rising above the foliage in mid summer. Its attractive, textured, heart-shaped leaves are chartreuse to gold in color with distinctive aqua bluish-green edges and tinges of bluish-green throughout the season. This foliage has better slug resistance than other hostas. This low maintenance perennial can be deadheaded if one chooses and should have the spent foliage removed after dormancy has occurred in late fall. The leaves and the flowers can be utilized in a variety of floral arrangements. Hostas make excellent choices for shady areas and woodland gardens, helping to cover the ground and create texture and impact.
