Rhino Hide PP23665 20" Tall X 30" Wide

$18.00

This is one large hosta that really has a "wow" factor! The leaves on this tough unusual hosta have a texture that reminds you of a rhino's hide. A hosta that has very heavy substance and slug resistant.  The cupped and puckered leaves have a wide, blue margin and a narrow, light green center that brightens to yellow as the season progresses. Plant forms a medium to large sized clump in the landscape.  White flowers top the scapes in early to midsummer. This tough hosta shows greater sun tolerance than many other hostas, but partial shade is still best, especially in the South.

Full Description
Cold Hardiness: U.S.D.A. Zones 3 to 9 - Hostas require a minimum of 40 days of around 40 degrees farenheit. Hosta plants tend to grow larger in the North. In the South you may need to be more selective in the varieties of hostas that you choose.
Light Requirements: Partial sun, filtered shade, morning sun. - Most hostas will tolerate some sun if the soil is kept reasonably moist. Morning sun or filtered sun is the best for hostas but avoid mid-day sun as it will burn the leaves.
Water Requirements: Keep soil constantly moist avoiding any areas where water may puddle
Fertilizer Requirements: In early Spring apply a light amount of slow-release fertilizer. Avoid getting any fertilizer on the leaves.

    So pleased with my experience with Pine Forest Gardens. I received healthy beautiful hosta with an outstanding root system. The hosta were very carefully and expertly packaged. The pricing was very reasonable as well. I plan to be a repeat buyer and would recommend Pine Forest Gardens to everyone. Thank you for your awsome customer care. Warmest Regards, Suzanne Kezman
