Description / Hosta 'Wiggles and Squiggles' Plantain Lily
Hosta 'Wiggles and Squiggles' stands out with bright chartreuse leaves that are exceptionally long, narrow, and dramatically rippled along the edges. The uniquely wavy foliage creates movement and texture in the garden, forming a low, spreading mound that draws attention even when not in bloom. In midsummer, lavender flowers rise above the foliage, adding soft color and attracting pollinators to shaded garden spaces.
This distinctive hosta brings season long interest to borders, foundation plantings, containers, and mass plantings. Its unusual leaf shape provides contrast against broader leaved hostas, ferns, heucheras, and other shade loving perennials. The bright foliage helps illuminate darker garden areas, while the flowers attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Like other hostas, it is also useful for disguising fading spring bulb foliage as the season progresses.
Grow Hosta 'Wiggles and Squiggles' in part shade to shade with average moisture and well drained soil. For the brightest yellow coloration, provide morning sun with afternoon shade. Plants reach approximately 10 inches tall and spread up to 24 inches wide, creating a broad mound of textured foliage. Hardy in Zones 3 through 9, this easy care perennial adapts well to a wide range of landscape settings, including urban gardens where growing conditions can be challenging.
