I have worked with A.D.R. Bulbs for almost 5 years now, and my company has sourced bulbs with them for longer than that. Communication is great - from ordering, to deliveries, to follow-ups on final product. I love the quality of the product as well as the service. We plant nearly 100,000 bulbs and A.D.R. keeps the whole process easy for us!

Hosta 'Blue Mouse Ears' is a compact, shade-loving perennial with thick, rounded, blue-green leaves that resemble tiny mouse ears. This award-winning hosta forms a symmetrical mound, making it ideal for small gardens and containers. In midsummer, rich violet, bell-shaped flowers with lavender stripes rise above the foliage, attracting pollinators. Thriving in part shade to full shade, it tolerates dry conditions once established.

Planting: Plant in early spring or fall. Soak roots in water for 3–6 hours before planting. Dig a hole wide enough to spread the roots, form a small mound in the center, and drape roots over it. Set the crown just below soil level and backfill firmly. Space 18 to 30 inches apart depending on variety.
Location: Partial to full shade is ideal. Some varieties tolerate morning sun, but avoid hot afternoon exposure.
Soil: Moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Enrich with compost or leaf mold.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during establishment. Once established, hostas are moderately drought-tolerant but benefit from regular watering in dry spells.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–9. No winter protection needed in most climates.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a balanced fertilizer in spring. Avoid high-nitrogen formulas that encourage soft, slug-prone growth.
Pruning: Remove spent flower stalks and yellowing leaves. Cut back to the ground in late fall or early spring.
Propagation: Divide clumps every 3–5 years in spring or fall to rejuvenate and multiply.
Pest & Disease: Watch for slugs, snails, and foliar nematodes. Use barriers or organic deterrents and maintain good air circulation.
