Guardian Angel Hosta
I grew it for 2 years by the Gazebo in a sunny exposure, and then moved it to a more sheltered spot with an eastern exposure, 2 years ago under a Crab Apple Tree near the drive. I wanted it to be in a spot to be seen. Of course, that moving also set it back, but in another year it will be glorious!

Внешний вид
Guardian Angel Очень эффектная красивая хоста. Листва хосты крученая. Имеет светлый зеленоватый центр и голубую кайму. К концу лета кайма зеленеет, в центре листа зеленые нотки также усиливаются, но тем не менее куст все равно не теряет свое привлекательности. Свою красоту в полную силу этот сорт раскрывает не сразу, пройдет несколько лет прежде чем у Вас получится великолепный красивый экземпляр.
Место посадки
Хоста Guardian Angel лучше выращивать в полутени или в тени. Но для сохранения яркости окраски желательно чтобы куст 1 или 2 часа в день освещался прямым солнцем. Важно подобрать правильное место в саду, чтобы сорт полностью раскрыл свой потенциал.
Дизайн
Хоста сорта Guardian Angel вряд ли должна использоваться в групповых посадках. Это определенно солирующая хоста, требующая особого антуража.

Guardian Angel Hosta
Guardian Angel Hosta is a very striking medium to large size hosta that is suitable for zone 4 shade perennial gardens. It has a heavily substanced, ruffled leaf with an ivory center.
As the summer progresses, the center turns to a lighter green, but is still a knockout Hosta. It has near white flowers in late June into July on tall scapes.
When I saw Guardian Angel at the local Hosta Nursery I knew I had to have one for myself. That was 4 years ago and anyone that sees it, loves it. Some have even gone to the local Hosta Nursery and purchased it right away!

I divided the plant that I had into 4 or 5 divisions and spread them out so when they get to be a couple more years old they will fill out the area completely.
The Hostapedia book by Mark Zillis, comments that this ranks as one of the best sports developed in the last 20 years! (Sport of Blue Angel) No wonder I liked it so well!
Guardian Angel Hosta Leaves
Guardian Angel Hosta
Here is a view of the hosta leaves. This photo was taken in mid-September and still looks good after the hottest days of July and August.
Growing Information
Mature size is 24” tall by 54” wide.
This Guardian Angel hosta is quite slug resistant. I can attest to that because next to Guardian Angel is one called Lemon Lime and that has been bothered by slugs, whereas Guardian Angel has no holes in early September as I write this.
I love to search out different Hostas like this one to place at focal points around the beds. It makes for an interesting summer season to watch the plant change.
Hosta Guardian Angel: opis odmiany, charakterystyka, specyfika sadzenia i pielęgnacja
This sport of H. ‘Blue Angel’ was registered in 1995 by Rick and Criss Thompson of Virginia. It forms a large size (21 inches high by 75 inches wide) mound of blue-green foliage that has a misty white center which turns green as the summer progresses. Near white flowers bloom from late June into July.
According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009) , “This still ranks as one of the best sports developed in the last 20 years. Rick Thompson first told me of this plant in 1993, but my first viewing of it left me awestruck. It makes a spectacular specimen in the shaded landscape and will keep its variegation for much of the season if it receives an hour or two of direct sunlight each day.”
From the Field Guide to Hostas by Mark Zilis (2014) , “. Rick Thompson was very proud of this plant, one of two classic hostas that he developed, with ‘Striptease’ being the other. Few large hostas have a more spectacular show of variegated foliage in spring than ‘Guardian Angel’.”
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by Diana Grenfell (2009) states in its Hosta Hybrids for Connoisseurs chapter: “May need re-siting more than once to obtain the maximum effect from the unusual variegation. Divide frequently. The twisted appearance of the leaf is more apparent in young plants before the leaf has flattened and expanded with maturity. The variegation is not visible on the second flush of leaves.”
An article by Warren I. Pollock in The Hosta Journal (1996 Vol. 27 No. 2) states that, “H. ‘Blue Angel’ is one of the best large blue-leaved hostas. The leaves are more pointed and less seersuckered than those of H. ‘Elegans’ . I happen to think the leaves are a good blue color; there are other big hostas with bluer leaves. it is a faster grower than H. ‘Elegans’ . an exciting new sport of ‘Blue Angel’. ..H. ‘Guardian Angel’ is a blue-leaved hosta with an attractive, wide center variegation. Not surprisingly, ‘Green Angel’ is the green sport.”
