Blue Mouse Ears Mini Hosta

These are darling leaves, with their lovely rounded edges and a precious blue-green tone. They're sweet, yes, but they won't need coddling. They're made of strong substance—soft, thick and heavily grooved—which slugs tend not to like. You can expect Blue Mouse Ears to grow easily and vigorously in the landscape, where there are many uses for it, too. It's a mini hosta, so it'll fit nicely in a container, which is handy for a covered patio. Like all hostas, it's right at home in a woodland garden. The unusual color will stand out in front of all your big, bold hostas or match pink and purple florals. It has a gentle look that matches nicely to graceful ferns, and as they're both carefree shade lovers, they'll thrive beautifully together. Petite scapes of lavender flowers rise up around midsummer to draw in butterflies; we can't think of a sweeter scene than that. Hosta 'Blue Mouse Ears'
