Hosta (Mini) ‘Mini Skirt’

A real collector's item, 'Mini Skirt' is a mini Hosta that forms a fabulous, ruffled mound of variegated leaves.

‘Mini Skirt’ is a petite and flirty Hosta that forms a miniature mound of very wavy, thick, blue-green leaves with creamy yellow margins in spring. In summer, the centre turns more green and the edge lightens to creamy white. Pale lavender flowers with deeper purple stripes appear closely packed together on short, scapes. Miniature Hosta are great in shady containers or troughs, at the front of the border, in shady rock gardens, tucked into small spaces, and along pathways. Or mass plant as a small scale ground cover. Dangerous for collectors who will want to have many more than just one! Attracts bees and hummingbirds. Slug and snail resistant. Less likely to be of interest to deer with its thick leaves.
