Hosta 'Royal Standard'
'Royal Standard’ is a large hosta. It resulted from a cross between H. plantaginea and H. sieboldiana. It grows in a mound to 26" tall but spreads to 63" wide. Narrow, oval, bright medium green leaves (to 9" by 5") with a satiny sheen have faint marginal undulations, distinctive veining, acute tips and cordate lobes. Leaves of this cultivar acquire yellowish-green tones in full sun. Highly fragrant, funnel-shaped
Easily grown in evenly moist, organically rich, well-drained soils in part shade to full shade. Best in part shade (some morning sun or sun dappled conditions). Established plants have some tolerance for dry shade (particularly plants with thick leaves), but soils should never be allowed to dry out. Full size and quality form are best achieved with consistent moisture. Water is best applied directly to the soil beneath the leaves. Divide plants as needed in spring or autumn. Division is usually easiest in early spring before the leaves unfurl. Plant in locations protected from wind.
Uses:
Hostas are a mainstay of shade gardens. Notwithstanding the often showy flowers produced, hostas are primarily grown in shady areas for the often ornamental excellence of their foliage. Very effective in groups or massed. Good background plant. Shady borders, shade gardens or woodland gardens.
