August Moon Hosta
This low care perennial is ideal for shady positions, tubs and patio pots, and one of the most popular for landscape uses.
The white to pale lavender flowers bloom from July to August, however, Hosta's are not known only for their flowers.
With a plant height of 24" and a spread of 24-36", Hosta's provide bright color in shade with wonderful foliage.
A great choice for any beginner gardener.
The Hosta `August Moon', Hosta sieboldiana, has wide, heart-shaped gold colored foliage with slightly rippled margins, making it very striking.

Leafhoppers are 1/4 inch long pests that like to suck the juices right out leaves, buds,and stems. You can keep these bugs away by planting petunias, geraniums and perennial grasses - they hate moisture and low light.
