Proven Selections Touch of Class Hosta

This plant thrives in full to partial shade. While it can handle some dappled light, it performs best when protected from the harsh afternoon sun, which can scorch its delicate blue-green foliage.

Yes, the Touch of Class features heavy, textured foliage that is naturally more resistant to slug damage compared to thinner-leaved varieties. While no plant is entirely immune, its thick leaves make it a much less appealing target for common garden pests.

Since this Hosta reaches a mature spread of about two feet, you should space them two feet apart from the center of one plant to the center of the next. This allows enough room for the mounded clump to fill out properly without overcrowding.

Absolutely. The Touch of Class Hosta is hardy in USDA zones 3 through 9, meaning it is well-suited for a wide range of climates, including regions with very cold winters.

It is a low-maintenance perennial that requires very little intervention once established. Simply ensure it is planted in moist, organic soil and keep the area watered during dry spells; otherwise, it will reliably return year after year.

In mid-summer, the plant produces spikes of lavender-purple flowers that rise above the foliage. Beyond their color, these blooms are a functional addition to your garden because they attract hummingbirds.
