Hosta Plantain Lily Shadowland Wheee
Shadowland® ‘Wheee!’ Hosta (Hosta hybrid)
Shadowland® ‘Wheee!’ Hosta is a playful, eye-catching perennial that brings texture, movement, and bold foliage to shade and part-shade gardens. Known for its extremely ruffled leaves, this distinctive hosta forms a full, mounded plant that stands out as a specimen or mass planting.
The green leaves are edged with creamy white margins that widen as the plant matures, creating increasing visual impact year after year. Thick, substantial foliage offers improved resistance to slug damage, making this variety both attractive and dependable. In mid-summer, light lavender flowers rise above the foliage on tall scapes and attract hummingbirds.
Perfect for shade borders, containers, woodland gardens, and landscape plantings, Shadowland® ‘Wheee!’ combines ornamental appeal with easy care and long-term performance.
