Rainbow's End Hosta

Expert Pick

Edwin Visser

Noordwijkerhout, Netherlands

Description

Striking leaves, scarlet stems and plenty of personality.
Vivacious and bold hosta presents heavily variegated foliage of chartreuse and deep green, its centres brightening to creamy white in summer. These incredible leaves are also leathery and shiny. Line shadowed walkways and add dark colour to containers. In late summer, eye-catching red scapes carry dark lavender blooms that butterflies can’t resist.

How to Care for Rainbow's End Hosta

Caring for a Rainbows' End Hosta is a similar process to taking care of other popular hostas. Hostas are incredibly easy to care for-as long as they're provided a location that receives afternoon shade, hostas will happily thrive for years. Provide a top dressing of compost each year to keep the soil enriched, and make sure to water your hostas consistently.

Leave the foliage on your hosta until it begins to whither during late fall. Wait to cut back the plant until about 1/4th of the leaves have begun to wither, then trim it back as far as is desired. Hostas will regrow from the ground up each year.

You should divide your hosta every year or two to prevent overcrowding-as an added bonus, division will give you more Rainbow's End Hosta! To divide, simply pull up the hosta in spring, after the plants have begun to sprout. Separate the clumps using a knife of sharp spade, making sure each clump has several leaves. Then, replant at will.
