H. ‘Curtain Call’

Overview

Registered in 1998 as a sport of *Hosta* 'Wolverine', 'Curtain Call' is a large, fast-growing cultivar distinguished by its broad, blue-green leaves with medium blue-green margins. The foliage reaches 12 inches (30.5 cm) in length and 6 inches (15.2 cm) in width, forming a substantial clump.

In the Garden

'Curtain Call' performs best in partial to full shade, where its blue-green foliage maintains color intensity. Mature plants form a clump approximately 24 to 30 inches tall and 36 to 48 inches wide. It pairs well with ferns, astilbes, and other shade-tolerant perennials; its large size makes it suitable as a specimen or in the middle to back of a shaded border.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture, especially during dry periods, and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Like most large-leaved hostas, this cultivar may be susceptible to slug and deer damage in garden settings.
