A Polished Dark Green with a Mirror-Bright Finish
Hosta 'Eco Mirror' is a medium hosta bred by Belgian hybridizer Luc Van Eechaute and registered in 2014. It is prized for its exceptionally glossy, dark green leaves that reflect light with a distinctive mirror-like sheen. The smooth, lance-shaped foliage forms a tidy, arching mound with strong substance and excellent slug resistance. It is reliably hardy across Canadian zones 3–9. A refined, low-maintenance cultivar that brings a polished elegance to the shade garden.
-
Mirror-Bright Gloss: The leaf surface carries an unusually high sheen, catching and reflecting light in the shade border in a way few hostas can match.
-
Rich Dark Green Foliage: Deep, saturated green colouring holds consistently through the season, providing a stable, elegant backdrop for companion plantings.
-
Compact and Well-Proportioned: Forming a neat mound of 33 cm (13") high by 56 cm (22") wide, it suits the front of a border, a container, or a shaded rock garden.
-
Summer Blooms: Lavender flowers rise on slender scapes in mid-summer, offering a soft contrast to the glossy dark foliage below.

Grower's Tip: The glossy finish of 'Eco Mirror' is best appreciated in dappled light where the sheen can catch and reflect. We verify every plant is True‑to‑Type before shipping, confirming that signature mirror gloss is fully developed before your order leaves our hands.
