Hosta ‘Lemon Snap’ is a low-growing plant that serves as an excellent ground cover. Despite its diminutive size, it exudes a substantial presence in any garden or landscape. Its light green-yellow foliage extends upward, complemented by red petioles that occasionally extend to the center vein of the foliage. The foliage exhibits a unique texture, characterized by its curved, cupped inward formation and deep veins. The flow of the foliage creates a crinkled appearance reminiscent of paper. In the summer, purple flowers develop along the foliage on stems, attracting pollinators.

Homeowner Growing Tips

Hostas grow best in moist, well drained, sandy soils, were the roots can get plenty of aeration. Prefer full shade but can tolerate a little morning sun, but most afternoon suns will burn and kill the leaves of the hosta.

Hostas are prone to slugs and deer browsing, though some kinds with thicker foliage may not be damaged as badly. Apply slug bait in early spring before the leaves have unfurled to prevent damage.

Divide large clumps, if necessary, in spring when sprouts appear, or late summer. Remove dead foliage from the garden in late fall to early winter.

Water Requirements: Water soil fully, then let soil get moist/dry before watering. Do not let dry out, but also can not be soaked or waterlogged.
