Hosta 'Mouseketeer' - Mouseketeer Hosta

Mouseketeer Hosta is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its attractive rounded basal foliage.  These blue-green leaves have a chartreuse center flame.  Flowering stems sporting lavender bell-like flowers raise up above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies and pollinators.  Best color in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.   

MAINTENANCE NEEDS:   Low maintenance.  Snails and slugs can cause severe problems if left unchecked.  Foliar nematodes can cause interveinal browning. Plants infected with Hosta Virus X (HVX), tobacco rattle virus or tomato ring spot virus should be immediately removed from garden areas and destroyed.  Otherwise, little to no problems.
