HALCYON HOSTA CARE

Hosta plants can adapt to a variety of soil types but well draining & moist soil is best to keep them looking up to par. Consistent watering at the base of the plant will keep their leaves lush and full throughout the growing seasons.

The hosta halcyon can grow up to 2 feet tall and 2-3 feet wide in a clumping habit as the plants reach full maturity. Divide plants in fall or winter as needed. Mulching with organic material such as pine bark or pine needles will help retain moisture.
