Hostas

This pure white flower, a member of the Lily family, provides a cool visual contrast to the vibrant colours on display in the temperate house at the Auckland Domain Wintergarden this week.

Hostas, also known as plantain lilies, are summer-blooming perennials that originated in South East Asia and are now among the most popular shade-loving plants in Europe, the USA and Australasia. Hardy and easy to care for, they are highly prized for their lush foliage.
