Hosta Lemon Lime

Hosta Lemon Lime, also known as Hosta 'Lemon Lime', is a medium-sized shrub native to Japan and parts of China. It is an evergreen, deciduous perennial which means it will lose all its leaves in winter and regrow them in the spring. It can reach over two feet in height and produces bright yellow and lime green variegated foliage. Its leaves are deeply lobed, heart-shaped, and up to 12 inches in length. It has bell-shaped flowers that appear in clusters and range in color from light purple to white. Hosta Lemon Lime needs bright, indirect sunlight for optimal growth.

Hosta Lemon Lime prefers moist, well-drained soil for optimal growth. The soil should be kept consistently moist and never allowed to dry out or become soggy. To assess if the soil needs watering, check for dampness by using your hand or a soil moisture tester. Every other week, add some fertilizer to the soil to ensure that the plant is getting enough nutrients as it grows.
