Description

A Cinematic Duo of Shimmering Green and Gold

Expertly hybridised by Doug Beilstein, Hosta 'Bogie and Bacall' is a refined result of crossing the classic Hosta 'Beatrice' with the deep tones of Hosta 'Rhapsody in Blue'. This low-growing, mounded variety is a hallmark of stable variegation, perfectly suited for the front of the border or a woodland path. Whether you are gardening in the humid expanses of Ontario or the crisp Atlantic coast, its clean lines and shifting seasonal colours make it a reliable standout that performs with effortless grace.

Why It Stands Out

Dynamic Luminous Margins: The ovate leaves emerge with a soft yellow border that gradually transitions to a crisp, creamy white as the season matures, providing a bright, shimmering effect.
Medium Green Core: The heart of each leaf is a cool, matte green that serves as the perfect canvas for the lightening edges, maintaining a subdued finish on top that absorbs the soft northern light.
Wavy Leaf Architecture: With 8 to 9 vein pairs and a lightly wavy margin, the foliage offers a sense of fluid motion that stays tidy and low to the ground.
Lavender Summer Sparkle: In late summer, exceptionally tall scapes — reaching up to 61 cm — rise well above the foliage to present wide-open, funnel-shaped pale purple flowers.

Technical Specs

Feature	Specification
Size (H × W)	33.02 cm × 81.3 cm (13″ × 32″)
Hardiness Zone	Canadian Zones 3–9
Colour	Green with yellow-to-white margins
Light Requirements	Partial to full shade

Grower's Tip

Because the margins whiten as the summer progresses, place Hosta 'Bogie and Bacall' in a spot where you can enjoy its transition from spring gold to late-season ivory. At our nursery in Bécancour, we strictly adhere to our True to Type mandate, monitoring the stability of these variegated margins in our trial beds to ensure your plant arrives with its signature traits intact.
