'Silly String' is a unique hosta with a twist. Narrow blue curly leaves rise up from the hostas with intense wavy margins. With hostas, it is easy to get overwhelmed with the number of choices and that is why we try to offer a limited number iconic/disease resistant hostas for certain tasks in the garden. We selected 'Silly String' for its unique character and the texture it brings to the garden. We recommend using it as a single plant to bring texture to an area of lowering mounding flowers, or in a grouping to provide uniform shrub-like texture to a shaded area, along a walkway or hardscape. Hostas are a popular perennial due to their flexibility and tolerance of many types of sunlight, but are best known for their success in shade. They are a great plant for supporting the showier members of your garden collective, but can offer many striking features in their own right. Hostas come in thousands of different varieties and many distinct shapes and colors. There is truly a hosta for every occasion or situation. They are hardy plants that can thrive in pristine and urban environments alike. Pair with Coral Bells for an excellent variety of shade tolerant low lying plants for walkways, borders and blending or joining garden elements. Photo Credit: Walters Gardens
