The Other Half of Hot Hosta Hits

The Other Half of Hot Hosta Hits

Posted by Emerald Coast Growers on Jun 3rd 2026

As one of the top-selling genera in North America, Hosta is a proven favorite among growers, gardeners, and landscape professionals for a nearly endless variety of applications.

Strengthen your perennial program with a large selection of easy-to-grow Hosta. Tempt customers with bold and bicolor, cute container-friendly compacts, or go blue and big.

Coveted for their low maintenance, shade-friendly nature, these six winning varieties range in texture, size, and sun tolerance.

We covered some customer favorites last week. Here's the other half of our popular options.

'Stained Glass'

36" w x 15" h

Hosta of the Year 2006.

Sun tolerant and a vigorous grower. Shiny, deeply veined bright gold leaves edged in dark green. The fragrant lavender flowers are a magnet for hummingbirds.

'Rainforest Sunrise'

16" w x 10" h

Hosta of the Year 2013.

A popular compact! Small, cupped, and corrugated leaves with radiant golden centers narrowly framed in deep green.

'Sum and Substance'

60" w x 36" h

A large, impressive Hosta with glossy, deeply veined, big chartreuse leaves and lovely lavender purple flowers. A very sun-tolerant cultivar.


Summer-grown Hosta finishes retail gallons fast. Great growers and gardeners know warm season planting allows time for full, mature development before winter rest.

Next spring, you'll reap the rewards of planning and planting ahead with fat, retail-ready gallons bursting from dormancy with multiple eyes. 


sieboldiana 'Elegans'

48" w x 24" h

Big, bold, and dusty blue with an extraordinary presence. Heavily textured, cupped leaves of glaucous blue green are topped with very showy pristine white flowers.

'First Frost'

36" w x 18" h

A sport of 'Halcyon'

Icy blue leaves with creamy yellow margins that brighten to frosty white in summer. Mid-summer brings pale purple flowers that lure pollinators.

'Francee'

36" w x 15" h

Hosta of the Year 1997.

A well-loved classic.

Forest green, heart-shaped leaves with a white edge. Lavender flowers. A great selection for massing.
