Description

An exciting and unusual hosta with rippling foliage that adds texture and movement to shady areas. Hosta ‘Silly String’ is a small variety with long, narrow, blue-green leaves with wavy edges. In summer, upright spikes hold pale purple flowers that pair beautifully with the foliage. Plant Hosta ‘Silly String’ into borders or containers alongside broad-leaved varieties and lacy ferns for a fabulous display of texture and colour. Alternatively, pair it up with its golden-leaved twin, Hosta ‘Party Streamers’. Height and spread: 30cm (12in).

How to Grow
Grow Hosta plants in sun or dappled shade, on rich, moist, well-drained soil. Plants can grow well in a sunny border, but will need to be kept reliably moist. Plants may perform better on slightly acid soils. Before planting, work some fresh compost or general fertiliser into the top 20cm of the soil. Alternatively plant Hostas in patio containers in soil based compost such as John Innes No. 3.
More Info
In autumn, remove old foliage and apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant. Lift and divide Hosta plants in autumn every third year to maintain their vigour.
