Most hostas thrive best in shade or partial sun. However, the hosta is a rugged plant and can adapt itself to its surroundings. This makes it a low maintenance and attractive plant.
Hosta ‘Lakeside Paisley Print’ was originated and introduced by M. Chastain in 2006. A distinguishing feature is center leaf markings that shoot out from petiole. It originates as a 1st generation division of the original seedling. ‘Lakeside Paisley Print’ reaches a height of about 10 inches with a width of 30 inches. 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.
