Hosta ‘Climax’ was originated and introduced by L. G. Jones in 2000. It is classified as an ‘upright’ (yes, hostas have a wide range of shape descriptions also) that reaches a height of about 24 inches with a width of 50 inches. Climax has near white flowers and is a sport of H. ‘High Noon’. See the full characteristics in the Hosta Treasury.

Spring is one of the best times of the year – after the long winter we watch with anticipation as our plants begin to emerge. Unfortunately, the Lily Leaf Beetles begin to emerge alongside our beloved plants. Two of our NWHS members have already reported seeing these destructive beetles this spring! You should be checking your lilies now – they especially like your high priced martagons.
