Hosta ‘Clifford’s Forest Fire’ – 2026

Description

Hosta ‘Clifford’s Forest Fire’ is a hardy perennial admired for its bold, variegated foliage. The green leaves are edged with wide, creamy-yellow margins and form dense, mounded clumps, adding striking contrast and structure to shaded garden areas. In midsummer, upright spikes of pale lavender flowers rise above the foliage, providing height, seasonal interest, and attracting pollinators. Its dramatic leaf colour and tidy habit make it ideal for borders, woodland gardens, or container planting.

Thriving in partial to full shade with moist, well-drained soil, ‘Clifford’s Forest Fire’ is hardy, low-maintenance, and reliable. The ornamental foliage maintains its visual appeal throughout the growing season, while the summer flowers enhance garden biodiversity. Its combination of bold variegation, compact growth, and seasonal blooms makes it a versatile and eye-catching choice for shaded planting schemes.
