We love Orion's Belt Hosta in a shady border where its striking appearance can be on full display. Light and bright with large, blue-green leaves that show off white margins and light waves from tip to stem, it perks up darkened spaces and ho-hum places with style and flair. Try it in partly to fully shaded garden spaces, such as wooded sites, shadowy borders, or covered porches and patios. Upon maturity, the rounded leaves present a slight cupping and increased waviness, and the margins turn creamy yellow. Orion's Belt exhibits good slug resistance, too. Midsummer brings pale lavender flowers to the party.
