Notes
'Country Mouse' hosta (Hosta 'Country Mouse') is a perennial for containers, troughs, borders, and fairy gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade. The small, heart-shaped leaves are blue-green with clean white margins. Lavender flowers rise above the foliage on short stalks in summer, and bees visit them. Plant it along a path or at the front of a bed.
Pairs well with Black Barlow columbine, Autumn Fire sedum, and Samantha lily.
