Hosta 'Sweet Innocence'

Hosta 'Sweet Innocence' is a charming and fragrant cultivar that adds a touch of elegance to shaded gardens. This medium-sized hosta typically grows to a height of 40-50 cm with a spread of 60-90 cm, forming a neat, mounded shape. The foliage is particularly attractive, featuring nearly heart-shaped leaves with a distinctive variegation pattern: a green centre surrounded by a creamy white edge. This colour combination brightens shady areas and provides interest throughout the growing season.

What sets 'Sweet Innocence' apart is its highly fragrant flowers. In midsummer, it produces tall scapes reaching up to 60 cm, adorned with pristine white, trumpet-shaped blooms. These flowers emit a delightful, sweet fragrance reminiscent of jasmine, perfuming the air and attracting pollinators. The contrast between the variegated foliage and the pure white flowers creates a fresh, clean look in the garden.

Thriving in partial to full shade, Hosta 'Sweet Innocence' prefers rich, moist, well-draining soil. It's an excellent choice for woodland gardens, shaded borders, or as a fragrant accent near patios and seating areas where its scent can be fully appreciated.
