H. ‘An Arrow for Easton’

Overview

Registered in 2014, *Hosta* 'An Arrow for Easton' is a small, fast-growing cultivar of unknown parentage. It is distinguished by its lance-shaped, medium green leaves with wide, heavily rippled white margins, a slightly shiny upper surface, and a very shiny underside.

In the Garden

This small hosta forms a compact, mound-like clump reaching 4 inches (10.2 cm) in height and 10 inches (25.4 cm) in diameter. It is suitable for the front of borders, rock gardens, or as a container specimen in partial to full shade. Its small size and distinctive foliage pair well with other miniature hostas, ferns, or woodland groundcovers.

Care Notes

Plant in well-drained, humus-rich soil and water regularly during dry periods. Fertilize in early spring as growth emerges; like most hostas, it is susceptible to slug and deer damage.
