Description
Hostas are not grown for their flowers but for their foliage. They come in a spectrum of blues, golds, greens, yellows and whites as well as variegated, some speckled and others striped. They thrive in the shade, even though they can withstand some sun, are long-lived and low-maintenance. Many Hosta varieties have seasonal color or can change color depending on growing conditions. They can take years to fully mature, each year exhibiting a change in color, texture and form. Hosta Minuteman produces large dark green spade like leaves edged with wide white margins. A very fast grower and very showy. Dark lavender flowers later in the season. Sun tolerant, dense and mounding. Plant this perennial in a location with partial shade.
