Notes
'Tea at Bettys' hosta (Hosta 'Tea at Bettys') is a perennial for borders, shade gardens, and cottage gardens. 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. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. It blooms from early to late summer and the flowers are fragrant. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Eastern columbine, Claire de Lune peony, and Little Hottie panicle hydrangea.
