Regal Splendor Hosta Plant

The Hosta 'Regal Splendor' captivates with its long, pointed, frosty blue leaves adorned with narrow, creamy yellow to ivory margins. Over time, these striking leaves evolve into a more blue-green hue, especially as their glaucous coating diminishes during the summer months. Forming an impressive upright, vase-shaped mound, this hosta boasts not only its uniquely textured, wavy leaves that demonstrate commendable slug resistance but also becomes a summer spectacle when adorned with bell-shaped, lavender flowers on tall 5-6-foot scapes. Regal Splendor stands out as a dazzling addition to shaded woodland areas, borders, or any garden seeking a touch of majestic elegance. Regal Splendor is shipped as a bare root, a method we favor for its ability to establish quickly, double in size compared to its potted counterparts within the first season, and omit the necessity for plastic pots—providing an eco-friendly advantage.

Hosta Plant Care Instructions: During the early part of the season, the soil should be kept constantly moist. As the summer heat sets in, allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. In late fall, once frost has turned the foliage brown, cut it back to the ground. To ensure vigor and prevent overcrowding, divide the roots every 3-5 years. Late fall or early spring are the best times for this task.
