Hosta - Bohemia collection

We present the “Bohemia” collection — a carefully curated selection of hostas distinguished by vivid foliage coloration, strong leaf substance, and reliable growth.

This collection includes:

1 × Hosta Bohemia Bamboo Island – a cultivar with oval, substantial, slightly wavy leaves; green in the center with a broad, irregular cream-yellow margin.
1 × Hosta Bohemia Quill Bill – a low clump with narrow blue-green leaves and wavy margins, ideal for shady or semi-shady garden spaces.
1 × Hosta Bohemia Sporty Miss Sunshine – a decorative hosta notable for its form, red petioles, and character suitable for mixed perennial plantings.
1 × Hosta Bohemia Yellow Corvette – a medium-sized hosta with bright yellow foliage, strongly rippled leaf margins, and an attractive clumping habit.

Together, they form a harmonious yet striking combination that brightens any shady or semi-shady bed. The diversity of shapes, colors, and leaf sizes provides both a rewarding growing experience and an appealing decorative effect in every garden.

How to grow hostas

Save light shade to shade place in your garden to plant hostas. Filtered sun is best for the colorful varieties to reach their full color contrast. The green and blue hostas are the most shade-tolerant. Usually the yellow cultivars are the most sun-tolerant. The most dangerous is a direct sunshine, especially hot afternoon sun. This is the most critical where temperatures are high. Variegated varieties, especially those with a lot of white in the leaves, burn very easily. Blue color of leaves turns to green-blue or even fully green with too much direct sun. Plants with thick leaves are better suited for dry soil conditions than thin-leaved ones, but none is able to grow years-long in very dry soil. Plant hostas in moist, humus-rich soil.

Water your hostas well immediately as you plant them. Give them water regularly during their first one or two growing season.

Hostas grow slowly and may take 2 to 5 years to reach their full size, longer for the largest species and cultivars. Reserve a plenty of space in your perennial bed for hostas. Most of them are medium sized or large perennials. Hostas are almost fully disease and pest resistant. The most dangerous injury can by caused by slugs, snails and deers.
