H. ‘Prawdzik Sunfish’

Overview

Registered in 2004 by an unknown breeder, *Hosta* 'Prawdzik Sunfish' is a medium-sized cultivar distinguished by its tricolor foliage: blue-green leaf centers with creamy yellow margins that are streaked with green and edged in blue. The leaves are broadly ovate with cordate bases, heavily rippled margins, and dull surfaces on both sides.

In the Garden

This slow-growing hosta reaches a mature spread of 24 inches (61 cm) and a height of 19 inches (48 cm), with an upright growth habit. It performs best in partial to full shade, typical for blue-green hostas, and is suitable for borders, shade gardens, or woodland settings. Its moderate size and distinctive leaf coloration make it effective as a specimen plant or in small groupings with other shade-tolerant perennials such as ferns or heucheras.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture, especially during dry periods, and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Like many hostas, it is susceptible to slug and deer damage, so protective measures may be necessary in areas where these pests are prevalent.
