The moderately corrugated and wavy texture adds dimensional interest to any landscape design, making it a favorite among landscapers and garden enthusiasts alike.

- Produces elegant pale lavender, funnel-shaped flowers on tall scapes in mid to late summer
- Attracts beneficial pollinators including hummingbirds
- Demonstrates excellent heat and slug resistance compared to many hosta varieties
- Maintains its striking variegation throughout the growing season

Planting and care information
Plant 'Wide Brim' hostas in rich, moist, well-drained soil with high organic content. They thrive in partial to full shade conditions, though morning sun can enhance leaf coloration (protect from harsh afternoon sun). Space plants 24-30 inches apart to accommodate their mature spread. These low-maintenance perennials require minimal care—simply remove dead foliage in late fall and divide large clumps every 4-5 years to maintain vigor. Expect spectacular foliage from spring through fall with flowering occurring from mid to late summer.
