Enchiladas Hosta is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its foliage.  The large, rounded, slightly rippled basal leaves are dark green with a bright chartreuse central flare.  The fragrant bell-like pale lavender flowers raise up in terminals from the rootstalk above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies.  Best color in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.  Enchiladas is sterile and won't self-seed.

MAINTENANCE NEEDS:   Low maintenance.  Snails and slugs can cause severe problems if left unchecked.  Foliar nematodes can cause interveinal browning. Plants infected with Hosta Virus X (HVX), tobacco rattle virus or tomato ring spot virus should be immediately removed from garden areas and destroyed.  Otherwise, little to no problems.

LANDSCAPE USES:  Accents or Group Plantings, Borders, Woodland Gardens, Naturalized Areas, Rock Gardens, and Containers.

COMPANION PLANTS:  Lungwort, Ligularia, Coral Bells
