Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

Hosta 'Olive Bailey Langdon' is an RHS AGM award winning perennial which will thrive in shady areas blooming with large, corrugated leaves and white bell-shaped flowers in the summer. The grand leaves have a blue- reen colour with broad gold margins that enable them to avoid sun scorch. Between June and July white tall, stemmed bell-shaped blossoms will appear bringing some elegance to the garden. These Plantain Lilies are great for a shady spot on a patio or border as these create dense ground cover. In the winter they will go completely dormant and the dying foliage can be removed before mid-spring. Height: 75cm (29"). Spread: 120cm (48").

When growing Hostas, choose a position in partial or dappled shade on fertile, moist, well drained soil. Add plenty of well rotted manure to improve heavy clay or light sandy soils. Alternatively plant Hostas in patio containers in soil based compost such as John Innes No. 3.

In autumn, remove old foliage and apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant. Lift and divide Hosta plants in autumn every third year to maintain their vigour.
