The Hosta Companion Plant That Adds A Bit Of Lemon Zest To Your Garden
By Annette Hird
Caladium 'Lemon Blush' has been bred to grow particularly well in the shade. As hostas enjoy the same conditions, the two can pair beautifully in your garden.
This means that Caladium 'Lemon Blush' will look amazing when you grow it alongside Hosta 'Blazing Saddles,' with leaves that have green centers and cream edges.
You can plant your 'Lemon Blush' tubers in a shady spot in the garden once temperatures are above 50 degrees Fahrenheit and there's no danger of frost.
These plants also do well in pots, so you may want to get a little creative and pair 'Lemon Blush' with your favorite hosta in the same container on your shady porch.
