H. ‘Gravity Rocks’

Overview

Registered in 2015 by H. Philips and D. Van Eechaute as a sport of an unnamed parent, *Hosta* 'Gravity Rocks' is a small-sized cultivar distinguished by its intensely wavy, upright foliage. The leaves are blue-green with heavy, rippled golden yellow margins, ovate with rounded bases, and exhibit a lightly twisted form with a dull upper surface and glaucous bloom beneath.

In the Garden

Reaching approximately 8.25 inches (21.0 cm) in height and 9.625 inches (24.4 cm) in diameter, 'Gravity Rocks' forms a compact, upright clump with a moderate growth rate. It is suitable for shaded borders, rock gardens, or container culture, where its rippled, upright leaves provide textural contrast. Companion plants include ferns, heucheras, or small shade-tolerant perennials that complement its blue-green and gold coloration.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. As with most hostas, monitor for slug and deer damage in typical hosta-growing zones.
