Red stems carry the cupped, slightly corrugated yellow leaves of Lemon Snap, a medium-sized hosta with plenty of texture. The bright foliage lifts the darker corners of a garden.
A large pot brings the red stems closer to eye level; in a border or along a path, a group of plants makes textured ground cover. A little morning sun keeps the yellow at its brightest. Our medium hostas include more plants of this size.
Our hosta planting guide covers every step, from soil to winter.

Its yellow leaves are cupped and slightly corrugated, and they sit on red stems. That mix of colour and texture sets Lemon Snap apart.
Morning sun is welcome and brightens the yellow, but Lemon Snap wants shade during the hot afternoon hours.
Roughly 50 cm, which gives this medium hosta space to show its cupped leaves without crowding.
Care & seasons
Hostas need about 4 cm of water a week in summer, roughly 40 litres per square metre including rain. Water deeply at the base of the plant, preferably in the morning, whenever the top few centimetres of soil are dry. New plants, hostas under trees and hostas in pots need checking most often; a mulch keeps the soil moist for longer.

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.
