I was surprised by how bright the margin is - it really shows well.

Author: irawon
A truly beautiful hosta that holds up well all season in my garden, growing under and at the edge of shallow rooted spruce trees. A good performer in spite of root competition.

Thank you for a great spring season!

We continue to ship Hostas and Daylilies all summer long but we are now done shipping bare root perennials for the spring and will begin shipping perennials again after mid-September. Watch for our bearded Iris listing later in June, as they are just starting to flower here now. We will also be clearing out our lily bulb coolers in early June, so watch for new lily bulb specials coming very soon.

The nursery is now open 7 days a week from 9am to 9pm, including all holidays. We are located 17 miles south of Jackson, Michigan on US-127, 1/2 mile north of US-12. For GPS directions use the address of 17680 US Highway 127, Cement City, MI 49233 as our regular nursery address usually takes you about 1 mile north of us.

Feel free to email us or call us toll free at 866-568-1474 with any questions and thank you very much for your continued support!

Sincerely yours, Chris Wilson and Brian Hall, Hallson Gardens
