Hosta 'Grand Tiara' - 2026

Hosta 'Grand Tiara' is a compact, clump-forming perennial valued for its bold variegated foliage and suitability for smaller gardens or containers. The leaves are rounded, medium green in the centre with a wide golden-yellow margin that becomes lighter as the season advances. This creates a vibrant, eye-catching mound of foliage that brightens shaded spaces. Its dense growth habit makes it an excellent edging plant, and its sturdy leaves show good substance, holding their colour well through the growing season.

In mid-summer, 'Grand Tiara' sends up slender scapes topped with lavender-purple, bell-shaped flowers that add height and soft contrast to its golden-edged foliage. It thrives in moist, fertile, well-drained soils and grows best in partial to full shade, although a touch of morning sun enhances its variegation. With minimal maintenance requirements and good durability, this cultivar offers long-lasting ornamental value in both formal and informal garden designs.
