In the Garden
This cultivar reaches a mature spread of 46 inches (116.8 cm) and height of 30 inches (76.2 cm), making it suitable as a specimen or focal point in partial to full shade.

Companion plants include ferns, astilbes, and other shade-tolerant perennials that contrast with its bold foliage.
Care Notes
Provide consistent moisture and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as growth emerges. While moderately resistant to slugs due to its thick leaves, monitor for damage in damp conditions; deer may browse the foliage in typical hosta-growing zones.
