Description Hosta ‘Ben Vernooj’ is a striking and elegant variety, known for its vibrant foliage and compact form. Its broad, heart-shaped leaves feature bright chartreuse to golden-yellow centres surrounded by wide, deep green margins, creating a bold and cheerful contrast. The slightly wavy texture adds extra visual interest, making it a standout in borders, woodland gardens, or containers. In early to midsummer, tall stems bear soft lavender flowers that attract pollinators. Reaching about 40-50cm in height with a similar spread, ‘Ben Vernooj’ is hardy, low-maintenance, and thrives in partial to full shade with moist, well-drained soil, offering season-long colour and texture.
