Some plants make an impression—Shadowland® Affair to Remember Hosta will make a lasting one. This premium selection from Walters Gardens forms a grand, rounded mound of large, heart-shaped leaves with luminous pale yellow to creamy centers framed by deep green margins. Where those colors meet, a feathered wash of medium green creates added depth and movement, giving each leaf a layered, painterly look that feels both refined and bold.
Beyond its foliage, this hosta delivers a graceful floral encore. In midsummer, sturdy scapes rise just above the foliage, carrying generous clusters of near-white flowers that float like lanterns above the leaves for weeks. The blooms add height and elegance without stealing focus from the foliage, making the plant a reliable anchor in shade borders, woodland gardens, and foundation plantings.
Bred for performance across multiple climates, Shadowland® Affair to Remember Hosta offers exceptional substance, strong garden presence, and impressive resistance to common pests. Its large leaves expertly conceal fading bulb foliage, tolerate urban conditions, and provide season-long interest from spring through fall. Whether used as a specimen plant or massed for dramatic effect, this hosta brings polish, permanence, and unforgettable beauty to shaded spaces.
