Invincible pairs dark green leaves with fragrant flowers in summer. This compact hosta, small to medium in size, also takes more sun than most hostas, and its deep foliage sets off flowering shade plants nearby.
Put a pot of it beside a seat, where the scent reaches you, or plant a short row along an open path. It also fits the front of a border that gets some sun. Our fragrant hostas and sun-tolerant hostas include more varieties with these qualities.
Our hosta planting guide covers every step, from soil to winter.

Yes, the summer flowers of Invincible are fragrant, so plant it in a pot by a seat or along a path where you can enjoy the scent.
It can: Invincible has more sun tolerance than most hostas and is happy from partial shade to sun, as long as the soil stays moist in brighter places.
Leave 30–50 cm between plants. Invincible stays compact, which is why it also fits pots and the front of a border.
Planting
Most hostas prefer shade or part shade, but some cope with much more sun if the soil stays moist. Gold and yellow varieties colour best with plenty of light, while blue and white-centred ones fade or scorch first. Even sun-tolerant hostas need afternoon shade in hot, dry weather, and sun tolerance is never the same as drought tolerance.

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
Hostas make an excellent ground cover for shade: planted closely, their leaves meet and suppress weeds from late spring until autumn. Choose medium-sized, vigorous varieties, plant them a little closer than in a border, mulch the gaps until the leaves close, and expect full cover after about three seasons.
