H. ‘Honey Moon’

Overview

Registered in 1982 by K. Anderson, this small hosta is a hybrid of *Hosta venusta*. It is distinguished by its green leaves with yellow margins and a satiny upper surface, forming a compact mound.

In the Garden

'Honey Moon' reaches a mature spread of 24 inches (61.0 cm) and a height of 18 inches (45.7 cm). As a small cultivar, it is well suited for the front of a border, rock gardens, or container cultivation. It performs best in partial to full shade and combines well with other small hostas, ferns, or shade-tolerant perennials such as *Heuchera*.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture, especially during dry periods, and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Slugs and deer may damage foliage; monitor and manage as needed in typical hosta-growing zones.
