H. ‘Fleeta Brownell Woodroffe’

Overview

Registered in 1986 by R. O'Harra, this medium-sized hosta is a hybrid of *Hosta* 'Tokudama'. It is visually distinguished by its blue-green leaves with chartreuse to yellow margins, a color combination that persists through the growing season.

In the Garden

'Hosta Fleeta Brownell Woodroffe' forms a dense mound 22 inches (55.9 cm) tall and 28 inches (71.1 cm) in diameter, making it suitable for mid-border positions or as a specimen in shade gardens. It performs best in partial to full shade, where the blue-green leaf centers hold their color well. Companion plants include ferns, *Heuchera*, and other shade-tolerant perennials. Its medium size also suits large containers.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture, especially during dry periods, and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Slugs may damage the foliage; monitor and control as needed. Deer resistance is typical for the genus.
