Hosta 'Fire and Ice' is a captivating perennial known for its striking foliage, which features dark green edges surrounding a pure white center, creating a dramatic contrast. This attractive variegation brings a dynamic, bold look to shaded garden spaces. The large, heart-shaped leaves are slightly wavy, adding texture and elegance to the plant. Growing to a height of around 30-45 cm with a spread of 45-60 cm, it forms a compact, mounding shape that works beautifully in borders, containers, or as a focal point in woodland gardens.
In late spring to early summer, 'Fire and Ice' produces delicate pale lavender flowers that rise above the foliage on tall scapes. These blooms not only add charm but also attract pollinators like bees and hummingbirds. Preferring partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soil, this hosta is an easy-to-grow plant that thrives in low-light areas. With its distinctive foliage and graceful flowers, 'Fire and Ice' is a striking addition to any shade garden, providing interest throughout the growing season.
