Plantain Lily 'June'

About this plant

Known for its vibrant, tri-color foliage, Hosta 'June' features thick, heart-shaped leaves with an irregular chartreuse-gold center surrounded by a wide, blue-green margin. As the season progresses, the chartreuse may lighten to a creamy yellow, offering a dynamic and ever-changing display in your garden. Its compact, mounding habit makes it an excellent choice for borders, containers, or mass plantings. In mid to late summer, 'June' sends up graceful scapes adorned with delicate, lavender-blue bell-shaped flowers that attract hummingbirds. This hosta is a superb choice for adding texture and color to shady garden areas, performing beautifully even in less-than-ideal conditions. Its robust growth and disease resistance contribute to its widespread appeal among gardeners.

Care & maintenance

Plant in well-drained, organically rich soil. Provide consistent moisture, especially during dry periods. Remove spent flower stalks to maintain a tidy appearance. Divide clumps every 3-5 years or when overcrowding occurs to promote vigor. Protect from slugs and snails, which can be a common pest for hostas.
