Brother Stefan Hosta is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its heavily textured foliage with vibrant chartreuse centers and irregular dark green margins. The tall scapes of near white bell-like flowers raise up above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils. Slug resistant.
