The Story

Plant Bio

Hostas are herbaceous perennials grown primarily for their beautiful, often variegated foliage. They form dense mounds of leaves and produce spikes of lily-like, bell-shaped flowers in summer. They are a mainstay of shade gardens.

A sport of the famous Hosta 'June', 'Miss Mykah' features a blue-green leaf center with a wide, creamy yellow margin that is brighter than its parent. In summer, it sends up scapes of pale lavender flowers.
