Description

Hosta (Plantain Lily) ‘Halcyon’ is a popular plant mainly due to the decorative foliage. The well-shaped, oval to heart-shaped leaves have a striking pink-green colour. White flowers appear along the stems in summer. The flowers rise above the leaves and give the plant extra decorative value. Hosta ‘Halcyon’ is a beautiful foliage plant that looks great in a flower pot or just in the ground. This Hosta likes a location with partial shade to shade. Water your Hosta ‘Halcyon’ regularly, the root ball must not dry out. Dry soil is poorly tolerated by the heart lily. Cut off the spent flower stems at the end of the flowering period. The heart lily is very hardy. Remove the dead leaves in the spring, soon you will see the ‘noses’ of the new shoots above the ground again. Hostas are very attractive in any shade border between flowering perennials, such as Hemerocallis and Astilbes.
