Hosta 'Sagae' | Sagae Hosta

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Hosta ‘Sagae’ forms broad, arching leaves in light green to blue-green, each blade edged with a wide, creamy yellow margin that lightens as the season progresses. In midsummer, tall flowers rise above the leaves carrying pale lavender, funnel-shaped blossoms. This cultivar traces its origins to Japan, where it was selected for ornamental garden use and later introduced to Western collections for its dependable performance.

In the garden, ‘Sagae’ works well as a focal plant in shade borders, woodland settings, and large containers where its flowing form adds structure. It also suits mass plantings and informal groupings, helping anchor planting designs with long-season foliage interest.
