Hosta 'Saint Paul' - 2026

Hosta ‘Saint Paul’ is a large and impressive clump-forming perennial prized for its bold foliage and striking presence in shaded gardens. The leaves open blue-green with a muted gold-chartreuse centre, before maturing to a brighter golden middle framed by wide blue-green margins. As the plant matures, the leaves develop a puckered, textured surface that adds depth and interest. In summer, upright scapes appear bearing pale lavender flowers, providing vertical contrast and drawing in pollinators.

This variety thrives in moist, fertile, well-drained soil and performs best in partial to full shade, though a little morning sun can help intensify the golden tones of the foliage. Strong and reliable once established, it benefits from regular moisture and some slug protection during the early stages of growth. With its large size and dramatic colouring, Hosta ‘Saint Paul’ is ideal as a feature plant in woodland borders or shaded beds.
