General Description: hosta albomarginata is a classic large hosta for the garden. White edged plantain lily is a clump forming, shade tolerant, herbaceous perennial that is primarily grown for the ornamental foliage; it produces a large clump of oval leaves of dark green with wavy, variegated margins of cream to white. In midsummer, upright, sturdy stems of trumpet-shaped, lavender-pink flowers appear. The genus originates from asia and is comprised of approximately 40 species. Hosta is a clump forming herbaceous ornamental grown mostly for its attractive foliage. Overall, hostas grow best in partially shaded sites and tolerate a wide range of soil types. Hostas have average water needs, but prefer even moisture, hot and dry. Hostas display their displeasure with margin and tip-burns on the leaves. Best uses for hostas are in shaded perennial gardens or massed as a groundcover. Albomarginata’s cream-edged foliage brightens up shady areas of the garden. Care of bare root perennials.remove the plant from its packaging and carefully remove all loose packing material. Soak the roots in a bucket of warm water for about 30 minutes. Examine the root system and trim away any rotted, mouldy or broken roots with a sharp knife. Dig a hole deep and wide enough to allow the roots to fan out from the crown at about 45 º angle. It sometimes helps to make a cone-shaped mound of soil in the bottom of the hole and spread the roots around it. Remember the crown of most perennials should be roughly level with the surrounding ground. Cover the roots with soil and press down firmly.make sure all the roots-especially those under the crown-are in contact wih the soil.
