'Robert Frost' has wide blue green leaves with creamy yellow margins that jut towards the midrib. Flowers are nearly white and form on a 30 to 35 inch scape in July. Foliage is about 22 to 24 inches tall with a spread of 40 to 42 inches. A nice perennial to fill in at the base of taller shrubs, to understory trees, or for a shady perennial garden.
Grow in well drained soil in part shade to full shade to dappled light. Some varieties are listed as being suitable for full sun, but in our hot, dry climate, they all benefit from some mid-day sun protection. Ideally, provide a loamy soil, amended with organic material. Remove spent flower scapes after blooming to encourage more flowering and for a tidy appearance. In early spring, remove spent foliage, taking care to watch for new foliage emerging from the crown. Though not thought of as a "water-wise" plant, Hostas do remarkably well in dry part-shade to full-shade conditions, and are frequently the victim of over-watering, succumbing to crown or root rot.
