Large, lustrous leaves in grey green with a broad yellow margin adorn Hosta ‘Francis Williams’ and make it the perfect addition to shady areas of the summer garden. With unforgettable foliage, this is accentuated by upright clusters of pale lilac flowers that add to its ornamental appeal.
Available as a single tuber, this Hosta is a low maintenance way to add impact and beauty to trickier areas of the garden or can be grown as reliable underplanting of a range of trees and shrubs. With low spreading growth, it is also an excellent choice as low maintenance ground cover that will effectively surpress weed growth.
To ensure you get the best display from your Hosta ‘Francis Williams’, plant it in a position with partial shade, in well drained but moist soil. Water it consistently until it is established and mulch annually to help with moisture retention.
