Hosta Blue Mouse Ears

Plantain Lily or ‘Blue Mouse Ears’ is a compact, adorable hosta featuring small, rounded blue-green leaves with a thick, almost rubbery texture. Its miniature size makes it perfect for edging, containers, or small garden spaces.

Prefers partial to full shade and consistent moisture, making it a low maintenance, beginner-friendly, and outdoor shade plant.

Maintenance Tip:
Water regularly during the first few weeks after planting to establish roots, then keep soil consistently moist, especially during hot or dry periods—hostas do not like to dry out. Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture and keep roots cool. Remove damaged or yellowing leaves throughout the season to keep plants looking fresh. Cut back foliage after frost or clean up in early spring before new growth emerges. Divide every few years in spring or fall to maintain size and vigor.
