Hosta 'Justine' ~ Justine Hosta part-sun IMAGES: (Leaves) Ladislav LuppaJustine Hosta is a shade loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its foliage. The large veined basal leaves have chartreuse green centers with thick intensely dark green margins. The small bell like pale lavender flowers raise up in terminals from the rootstalk above the mound in mid summer attracting butterflies. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well drained soils. Justine can handle more light than traditional hostas. Type: Perennial
