H. ‘Renaissance’

Overview

Registered in 1983 by E. Minks, *Hosta* 'Renaissance' is a sport of *Hosta* 'Flamboyant'. This medium-sized cultivar is visually defined by its green leaves with creamy yellow margins that mature to white, creating a distinct variegated pattern.

In the Garden

'Renaissance' reaches a mature size typical of medium hostas, with leaves approximately 0 inches (0.0 cm) long and 0 inches (0.0 cm) wide. It performs best in partial to full shade, where its variegation remains stable without scorching. This cultivar pairs well with ferns, heucheras, and other shade-tolerant perennials, and its medium stature makes it suitable for border fronts or woodland garden settings.

Care Notes

Provide consistent moisture during the growing season, particularly in dry spells, and apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Like most hostas, 'Renaissance' is susceptible to slug and deer damage, so protective measures may be necessary in areas where these pests are prevalent.
