Guacamole Hosta (Hosta ‘Guacamole’)

Guacamole Hosta (Hosta ‘Guacamole’) is a large, vigorous hosta known for its bright apple-green leaves with darker green margins and its highly fragrant white flowers. This variety brings both bold foliage and scent to shade gardens, making it a standout choice for borders and landscape focal points.

The broad leaves create a lush, tropical appearance, while the late-summer blooms release a sweet fragrance, especially noticeable in the evening. Its larger size makes it ideal for filling space in shaded areas and creating strong visual impact.

In Alberta, Guacamole hosta thrives in partial to full shade with moist, well-drained soil. It benefits from regular watering and protection from hot afternoon sun. This variety is particularly valued for its combination of foliage interest and fragrant flowers.
