Description

Deeply Cupped Foliage Sculpted for the North

Hosta 'Dixie Cups' is a Tony Avent introduction registered in 2007. Avent crossed Hosta 'Korean Snow' × Hosta 'Abiqua Drinking Gourd' to produce this bold, architectural cultivar. Its nearly round leaves are deeply corrugated and moderately cupped, giving the foliage a striking sculptural quality. The medium blue-green colour holds well through the season and suits Canadian gardens from zones 3–9. It works beautifully as a mid-border focal point or massed planting in a shaded bed.

Exceptional Texture: Deeply corrugated and moderately cupped leaves create a dramatic play of light and shadow across the leaf surface.
Cerulean Undertones: Medium blue-green foliage features a slightly shiny top and a glaucous bloom underneath for a cool, refreshing aesthetic.
Tightly Stacked Blooms: In mid-summer, sturdy green scapes support clusters of medium lavender tubular flowers for a high-impact floral display.
Sturdy Upright Habit: Reaches 38 cm (15") tall with a 61 cm (24") spread — ideal for mid-border placements and shaded rockeries.

Feature	Specification
Size (H × W)	38 cm × 61 cm (15" × 24")
Hardiness Zone	3–9
Colour	Medium blue-green
Light Requirements	Partial to full shade

Grower's Tip: We never ship until each plant has established itself in our Bécancour trial fields. This ensures the deep corrugation, cupping, and glaucous underside are fully expressed and True to Type before it is packed for your garden.
