H. ‘Harmony’

Overview

Registered in 1976 by E. Smith, with E. Smith and P. Aden as registrants, *Hosta* 'Harmony' is a small-sized cultivar derived from the Tardiana Group. It is distinguished by its blue-green leaves with blue margins, forming a compact, low mound.

In the Garden

'Harmony' reaches a mature height of 7 inches (17.8 cm) and a spread of 7 inches (17.8 cm), with leaf dimensions of 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) in length and 2 inches (5.1 cm) in width, featuring 14 vein pairs. Its scape rises to 12 inches (30.5 cm) in height. This small hosta is suitable for partial to full shade in typical hosta-growing zones. It pairs well with other small shade perennials such as *Heuchera* or *Tiarella* and is appropriate for rock gardens, troughs, or the front of shaded borders.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture during the growing season, particularly in dry periods. Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. As with many hostas, slug and deer damage may occur and should be managed through routine monitoring or protective measures.
