Notes
'Dancing with Dragons' hosta (Hosta 'Dancing with Dragons') is a perennial for shade gardens, borders, and containers. 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 35 to 47 inches, so give it room. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit the fragrant blooms.
Pairs well with Bride's feathers, Lily of the valley, and Solomon's seal.
