Hosta Liner Blue Mouse Ears

Blue Mouse Ears Hosta is a popular miniature hosta known for its compact growth habit and distinctive rounded, blue-green leaves. The thick, slightly cupped foliage forms a neat, symmetrical clump that works well in shaded garden beds, borders, containers, rock gardens, and other small garden spaces.

PLEASE NOTE PLANT SIZE: This listing is for ONE SMALL, ROOTED LINER/STARTER PLANT, not a mature hosta. A liner is a young plant grown specifically for transplanting and growing on. The plant you receive will be considerably smaller than a mature Blue Mouse Ears Hosta. Leaf count, height, and overall appearance will vary depending on the season and the plant's natural growth cycle. The liner has an established root system and is ready to be transplanted into the garden or a larger container.

Blue Mouse Ears produces lavender flowers during the summer on short flower stalks that rise above the foliage. Its thick leaves provide good slug resistance compared with many thinner-leaved hosta varieties.

For best results, plant in partial shade to full shade in rich, well-drained soil. Keep the soil consistently moist while the plant becomes established, but avoid standing water. Blue Mouse Ears is a perennial and will return each spring after its normal winter dormancy.
