Notes
'Blueberry Muffin' hosta (Hosta 'Blueberry Muffin') is a perennial for borders, shade gardens, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy or clay soil. It grows 12 to 24 inches tall and spreads at least 24 inches, so give it room. Bees and hummingbirds visit the flowers, and the blooms are fragrant. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Lady fern, Siberian bugloss, and Little Hottie panicle hydrangea.
