Notes

'Fog Light' hosta (Hosta 'Fog Light') is a perennial for shade gardens, borders, and low maintenance beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average moisture. Fragrant lavender-purple flowers appear from early to late summer and draw bees and hummingbirds. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.

Pairs well with Eastern columbine, Sedge, and Mount Hood daffodil.
