HOSTA 'Julie Morss'
Hosta, Julie Morss Plantain Lily, Plantain Lily
Julie Morss plantain lily is a clump forming, shade tolerant, herbaceous perennial that is primarily grown for its ornamental foliage. In spring, it produces a neat clump of small, heart-shaped, puckered leaves of yellow with blue-green margins. In late summer, upright, sturdy stems of bell-shaped, lavender flowers appear. This hosta prefers part sun to part shade and fertile, well drained soil. It is widely used in mixed perennial borders and massed as a large groundcover for shade. Most hosta are highly susceptible to slug damage.
