Hosta 'David A. Haskell' | Wide Yellow Margins Originator's Stock

Description

Broad Yellow Borders with Room to Shine

Hosta 'David A. Haskell' anchors a spacious shade garden with green leaves framed by broad yellow margins. Allen Haskell introduced this sport of 'Sum and Substance'. Our plants are direct divisions from a verified Originator's Stock specimen. As the mound expands, its bold foliage gives nearby finer-textured plants a striking backdrop.

  • Luminous Edges: Yellow margins reach 7.6 cm (3 in) wide, giving the medium green centres a generous frame.
  • A Garden Anchor: The substantial mound creates a focal point in a large border, with fast growth helping it fill its space.
  • Flowers Above the Foliage: Pale lavender blooms rise on scapes reaching nearly 180 cm (71 in), adding height to the summer display.
Feature Specification
Size (H × W) 63.5 × 127 cm (25 × 50 in)
Hardiness Zone 3–9
Colour Medium green with wide yellow margins
Light Requirements Partial to light shade

Grower's Tip: Give 'David A. Haskell' room to spread in rich, well-draining soil rather than squeezing it between smaller neighbours. It handles Canadian winters across Zones 3–9, returning as a bold anchor for the shade garden. At our nursery in Bécancour, QC, our True to Type standard means we verify the authentic 'David A. Haskell' before it leaves for your garden.
