Hosta ‘Guacamole’ brings bold, sun-warmed foliage to the shade garden, its large apple-green leaves glowing brighter where a little morning light reaches them. In summer, tall scapes lift fragrant lavender blooms that draw you in for a closer look—a treat among hostas. It thrives in partial to full shade with consistent, moderate moisture, forming a generous clump about a foot tall and nearly two feet wide. Use it to brighten a border or weave through a shaded bed as a lush groundcover. Its substantial leaves bring welcome texture beneath trees and alongside ferns. Give it room to settle in, and it returns larger and lovelier each year.
