About this plant
Commanding attention in any shade garden, Hosta 'Krossa Regal' boasts an impressive, vase-shaped form that elevates its striking foliage. Its thick, blue-green leaves are deeply veined and have a subtle silvery, frosty overlay, creating a sophisticated texture and color contrast. In mid to late summer, tall scapes emerge, adorned with delicate lavender flowers that add a touch of grace to its robust stature. This cultivar's upright habit makes it an excellent choice for adding vertical interest to borders or as a magnificent specimen plant. 'Krossa Regal' is celebrated for its vigor and ability to withstand some slug and snail damage due to its thick leaves, making it a reliable and low-maintenance choice for discerning gardeners.
Care & maintenance
Hostas are generally low-maintenance. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and fertilize in spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer. Protect from slugs and snails by using appropriate bait or deterrents. Divide every few years to maintain vigor.
