H. ‘Inniswood’

Overview

A sport of *Hosta* 'Sun Glow', registered in 1993, 'Inniswood' is a medium-sized cultivar distinguished by its greenish-gold leaves with dark green, slightly rippled margins. The leaf blade measures 8.5 inches (21.6 cm) long by 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) wide, with 13 vein pairs and a cordate base, while the margin is approximately 0.5 inches (1.3 cm) wide.

In the Garden

Reaching a mature clump diameter of 48 inches (121.9 cm) and height of 24 inches (61.0 cm), 'Inniswood' performs best in partial to dappled shade, where its gold-centered foliage retains brightness without scorching. The plant produces scapes up to 31 inches (78.7 cm) tall. It pairs well with ferns, heucheras, and other shade-tolerant perennials, and its medium size suits mixed borders or woodland gardens.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture, especially during dry periods, and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Like most hostas, 'Inniswood' is susceptible to slug and deer damage; monitor and manage as needed in typical hosta-growing zones.
