Delivery Information View Product DescriptionPlease note: This product cannot be delivered outside the United Kingdom.Loading...Description How to Grow More Info DeliveryWide heart shaped leaves with irregular, buttery yellow margins form broad mounds of foliage. The pale blue funnel shaped blooms of Hosta ‘Wide Brim’ appear on sturdy flower spikes from July to August. This RHS AGM variety makes a fabulous addition to borders, woodland gardens and patio containers, producing the best colour in a shady position. Supplied as bareroots. Height: 45cm (18"). Spread: 60cm (24").Culinary information: The best part to use is the hoston, the rolled up leaf as it emerges in the spring. Cooking depends on the size of the hostons, small ones can be fried for a few minutes, going well in stir fries. Thicker ones are better boiled and used as a vegetable.
