Patriot Hosta

Hosta 'Patriot'

Patriot Hosta is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for their foliage.  The glossy basal leaves are deep green with wide creamy-white edging and deep veins.  The bell-like lavender flowers raise up in terminals from the rootstalk above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies and pollinators.  Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
