Daily Hosta #2 - 'Heavenly Tiara' - Add your pics

Post by ViolaAnn »

Name: H. 'Heavenly Tiara'

Description: leaves start out with a gold center that turns to chartreuse surrounded by a very wide creamy white border.
Size: Medium (30"w x 16"h)
Origin: Walter's Gardens - sport of 'Grand Tiara'.
Flowers: dark purple flowers that appear midsummer
Added to garden: Spring 2011 - an impulse buy from a sale table

Notes: Started out in a pot, but by late July I had found a spot in the garden for this, having moved one that looked too much like part of the next hosta.

Slow growing compared to 'Golden Tiara', but very pretty.

This one has seen only modest growth over the last 2 years. Mid-July 2014.

2015. This one was suddenly in full sun due to the loss of a tree. It was too much sun and I moved it, but it still was in too much sun and will be moved again. This pic July 3 and it was already a bit faded.

By July 25 the effect of too much sun was even more obvious.

Between a very dry, sunny year in 2016 and a very wet year in 2017, this one grew a LOT. Obviously really likes the new location.
