Description

The listing, African Hosta (10 Plants) has ended.

African Hosta (Drimiopsis Maculata) or Little White Soldiers. Great in dish gardens, pots or in the ground. Sun or bright shade. It is a succulent. Neither insects, disease, slugs or snails seem to bother this wonderful plant. Cute flowers in the spring. They start green then turn white. The leaves are lovely. It starts from a bulb. Multiplies fast. The 3rd picture shows some in the ground with the bulb part visible. The 4th is a pic of the same ones later on in the season. The 2nd pic shows them in shade. They are a lighter green. I have some in my office that are really light green and no spots.

Questions & Comments

This is really beautiful. Watching....would it do ok inside? Or, do you know if it would survive the snow? Our Oregon winters are brutal :(

Yes you could have an inside. They like BriteLite but do well in the shade. As to snow I don't know if you want to leave some outside I would cover them with a thick covering of mulch or straw. You could always set them out in the spring in a pot and bring them back EN in the winter
