{"product_id":"hosta-stained-glass","title":"Hosta Stained Glass","description":"\u003cp\u003eHosta Stained Glass is a clump-forming herbaceous perennial prized for vivid yellow leaves edged by an irregular dark green margin. The broad, strongly veined foliage builds a low mound about 15 inches tall and 2.5 feet across. In late summer, erect racemes carry pale purple tubular flowers with darker stripes above the leaves, adding fragrance and attracting bees and hummingbirds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis winter-dormant hosta is well suited to shade gardens, woodland edges, flowering borders, underplanting beneath shrubs, and roomy patio containers. Its golden centers color best with filtered light or morning sun, while protection from hot afternoon exposure helps prevent scorching. Astilbe japonica Red Sentinel, Athyrium filix-femina Lady in Red, and Carex oshimensis Evergold are source-listed companions that share its preference for sheltered, moisture-retentive garden settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrow it in fertile, humus-rich soil that stays moist but drains freely. Water consistently during active growth without leaving the crown waterlogged, and apply a light feed in early spring. Divide established clumps in spring or late summer and remove spent stalks or dormant foliage as needed. Watch for slugs, snails, vine weevils in containers, aphids, deer, voles, and viral symptoms. Because hostas contain saponins that are toxic to dogs, cats, and horses, keep curious animals from chewing the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Barnswallow Flowers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44798452531251,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/4284\/2675\/files\/94023608c28c_1050.jpg?v=1788111616","url":"https:\/\/barnswallowflowers.com\/products\/hosta-stained-glass","provider":"Barnswallow Flowers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
