Mortko registered Hosta 'Carry On' in 2013 as a sport of H. 'Pilgrim', selected for its notably wider creamy white margin. Medium green leaves are broadly ovate with a tapered base and moderately wavy edges, each framed by a 1.3–1.6 cm (0.5–0.625\") rippled cream border. Clumps grow quickly to 30.5 cm (12\") tall and 76.2 cm (30\") wide, making it one of the faster small-medium hostas in the border. Pale purple blooms add a soft seasonal accent in summer. Canadian gardeners from Zone 3 through 9 will find it easy to establish and quick to impress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWider cream margins:\u003c\/strong\u003e A defining improvement over its parent H.

We grow it at our nursery in Bécancour, QC, where its crisp cream margins hold their brightness beautifully through the heat of a Quebec summer. Our True to Type standard means you receive the authentic R. Mortko selection — verified before it leaves Bécancour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hosta Choice Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Trade 1 gallon","offer_id":51366379389180,"sku":"CO-1230-1G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4.7\" pot","offer_id":51366379421948,"sku":"CO-1230-4","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/8249\/6764\/files\/hosta-carry-on-medium-green-creamy-white-margin-fast-growing-hosta-3863286.jpg?v=1790006766","url":"https:\/\/www.hostachoicegardens.ca\/en-ca\/products\/hosta-carry-on-green-cream-margin-mortko","provider":"Hosta Choice Gardens ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
