Each leaf of Color Glory has a cream centre inside a blue margin, and in low light that pale middle seems to shine. The plant grows medium to large, a hosta with enough presence to hold the middle of a border.
Plant it where a shady border needs body, or give it a large container on a patio that is shaded in the afternoon. Cream and blue together keep the look cool; for more leaves in blue tones, see our blue hostas.
Our hosta planting guide covers every step, from soil to winter.

Cream in the centre and blue at the margin. The pale middle of Color Glory shows up clearly when the light is low.
Allow 50–75 cm. Color Glory is a medium to large hosta and needs that room to fill out in a border.
Yes, Color Glory suits a large pot with holes in the base. Water it often in summer and keep it in shade or partial shade, clear of the hot afternoon sun.
Varieties
The best blue hostas range from the miniature Blue Mouse Ears to giants such as Big Daddy and Blue Angel. Their blue comes from a waxy coating that is thickest in spring and wears off in strong sun, heat and heavy rain, so plant them in shade or morning sun and water gently at the base. Varieties with a thick wax coat keep their colour longest.

Planting
Hostas grow best in moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Dig plenty of compost or well-rotted manure into the whole bed before planting: it helps clay drain and sandy soil hold water. Avoid ground that stays waterlogged, mulch every spring and feed lightly, because good soil matters more than fertiliser.

Design & companions
A good shade border is built in layers: large hostas and tall partners at the back, medium hostas in the middle and small ones at the front. Repeat a few varieties in groups of three or five, contrast broad hosta leaves with fine ferns or grasses, and add spring bulbs for colour before the hostas wake.
