Seasonal Spirit

'Christmas Pageant' forms a medium-sized mound of green leaves with irregular, wide creamy-white margins. The variegation is bright and high-contrast, creating a celebratory effect. The leaves have good substance and a slight wave. While its colors evoke winter holidays, this hosta performs all season long.

Use it to brighten shaded areas year-round, or feature it in containers for seasonal displays. It pairs naturally with red-twig dogwoods, winterberry hollies, and other winter-interest plants. Lavender flowers appear in mid-summer. 'Christmas Pageant' proves that holiday spirit doesn't have to be seasonal—it can be perennial.
