Plant Type: Hostas

Hosta ‘Halcyon’, Hosta Tardiana, is a vigorous grower and is known as one of the best blue Hosta’s. The classic blue spear-shaped foliage makes it very striking. With its excellent color, substance, and growth rate, it is not difficult to see why. The white to pale lavender flowers bloom from July to August. It is also extremely slug-resistant due to its thick leaves. This low-care perennial is ideal for shady positions, tubs, and patio pots, and is one of the most popular for landscape uses.
