Plant Sentry™

Plant Sentry is designed to protect both consumers and the nursery trade from invasive plant pests and diseases. Sites that display the Plant Sentry protection badge are protected from consumers buying and nurseries shipping material carrying invasive pests and diseases.

This proprietary eCommerce software prevents the shipment of a restricted plant to each state. The Plant Sentry system includes a shipment certification program. The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

The Wide Brim Hosta (Hosta 'Wide Brim') has a deep blue-green center with very wide, irregular margins of cream with gold tints at maturity, making it very striking! Forming wide fountains of cascading leaves, these bi-color ornamental perennials are sure to light up your shade!

The lavender flowers bloom from July to August and are nectar-rich resources for butterflies, bees, and Hummingbirds! However, Hostas are not known only for their flowers. Wide Brim Hosta provides bright color in shade with its wonderful foliage.

Due to its versatility and ease of care, along with its striking mounded form, Wide Brim is a favorite of landscape designers! This plant has a height of 20 inches tall when in bloom and a spread of 32-36 inches wide in a fountain of ornamental foliage! Hardy in USDA growing zones 3 through 8 are very cold hardy perennials. Even the most novice or busy gardeners will have success growing these herbaceous perennials!

Planting and Application:

Wide Brim is most at home in shady, woodland settings and often works well as a specimen or edging plant. Pollinator gardens and your Cottage gardens will get a traditional look with the addition of a few of these curious perennials! Fringe shady hardscapes and ring pergola or gazebos in cool, calming foliage and add that finishing touch to the front of your foundation plantings. Gardens in both the country and city find success with these fantastic perennials!

Large planters and containers in the dappled shade around your patio or even a shaded balcony will benefit from the graceful presence of these impressive plants. The cool coloration and eye-catching growth will decorate garden rooms with sculptural decor.

Perfect for shady Asian and Zen-inspired gardens, Hostas lend a cooling and calming presence to areas for meditation and relaxation. An outstanding specimen plant, covering wide areas of the garden with amazingly impressive leaves! Like all Hosta, Wide Brim is most at home in shady, woodland settings and works well as an accent or edging plant, or groundcover!

  • Creamy Light Green Margins & Blue-Green Centers & a Touch of Gold
  • Lavender Blooms for Pollinators & Hummingbirds

  • Clump-Forming Fountain of Bi-Color Blooms

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Plant this low-maintenance herbaceous perennial in an area that receives the right amount of light. The leaves need some morning sun to bring out the best coloration, but too much sun will burn the leaves so Wide Brim appreciates more full shade than other perennials. Highly resistant to heat and humidity long as they're given adequate shade and moisture, especially throughout the hottest part of the growing season. Tolerant of dry shade once established, these become incredibly resilient perennials! Hostas grow best in moist, well-drained soils that are highly organic. Preferring a pH between 5.5 and 7.5. A generous 3-4 inch thick layer of mulch chips helps retain soil moisture as well as insulate the root system from heat and chill. Prune back in late fall and divide your Hosta every 3 - 5 years.

  • Tolerates Full Shade
  • Moderate to Moisture Loving Plant
  • Excellent Slug & Snail Resistance
  • Very Cold Hardiness & Humidity-Tolerant & Urban Environments
  • Prune In Late Fall

Bright color and easy-care nature, Wide Brim Hostas are gorgeous color for your shade gardens of all sizes! Order yours at Nature Hills and start your own Hosta collection today!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Hostas need full sun or shade?

Hosta does best in full sun in cooler climates but does appreciate afternoon protection from the worst of the summer sun, especially in the hottest of their growing zone range. In the hottest climates, Hosta like partial shade or dappled shade, and some varieties will do great in full shade.

Where do Hostas grow best?

Hosta plants love enriched, well-drained soil that is moderately yet consistently moist throughout the growing season. They appreciate mulched garden beds.

Do Hostas come back every year? Are Hostas a perennial plant?

With vigorous carefree growth, Hostas are herbaceous perennial plants that will return year after year with little maintenance.

What do you do with Hostas in the fall? What do you do with Hostas in the winter?

Hosta leaves will die back after frost but the crowns and roots remain intact and dormant until next spring. Prune back the leaves once they turn brown in the autumn and remove them from the plant's area. For winter protection, add a layer of compost or mulch over the crowns to protect them from the chill.

Do Hosta attract hummingbirds or pollinators?

Hostas are loved by pollinators and hummingbirds! All walks of beneficial pollinators will show up to sip their nectar.
