Home of the NO SMALL PLANTS!
We are a bona fide nursery where we grow plants. That means we don't just pop our plants out of a tray and sell you a liner. Our plants are grown on to a bigger size, many times even to a mature plant!

Hosta 'Black Light'
Hosta ‘Black Light’ – Glossy Green Foliage with Glowing Purple Stems
Bring a touch of psychedelic charm to your shade garden with Hosta ‘Black Light’, a striking hybrid from Danny Van Eechaute. Bred from ‘Dewed Steel’ × ‘Devon Green’, this variety features pointed, glossy green leaves that create a clean, refined look. Its name comes from the plant’s standout feature—dramatic black-purple petioles that appear to glow, giving the clump a unique, luminous presence.
Forming a sturdy mound about 12" tall and 30" wide, ‘Black Light’ adds bold contrast wherever it’s planted. In midsummer, it produces fertile light lavender flowers held on purple-speckled scapes, adding an extra layer of color and texture. A true conversation piece for any hosta collection.
Info: Our plants are grown in 5.25 x 5.25 x 5.25 inch pots and develop large root systems. These are not a small liner but a plant you can put right into your garden. That means you will get a bigger plant right away compared to a starter plant. We guarantee you will get a true to type healthy plant that you will love for years. If you have any problems or questions we are happy to help. During early spring plants may still be breaking dormancy so they may appear smaller than they will be when they fully leaf out. In Fall or Winter the plants may be dormant which means the may be losing or have completely lost their leaves. Shipping: We do not ship to Hawaii or Alaska due to cost and import restrictions. Plants will be removed from their pots and loose soil removed and the rootball placed in a bag. We are an inspected nursery from the VA Dept of AG.
