Hosta 'White Feather'
- We've never seen anything like this - a miniature hosta with unique pointed leaves that emerge ivory white, later developing bright green streaks
- Upright stems of soft lilac purple flowers bloom throughout June and July
- A fully hardy, shade-loving perennial which makes an eyecatching addition to a woodland planting scheme and really shines in a patio pot
- Grows to a neat 15-20cm in height and 45-60cm spread
- This hosta variety deserves to be front and centre in a border, and also looks fantastic planted in rows along the edge of a path
