Description

My name is Patriot Hosta, and I am best known for my dual coloured heart shaped leaves, remaining a deep green with distinctive white edges throughout the season. Not only is my foliage eye-catching, I sprout dainty lavender bell-shaped flowers during the mid summer, adding even more colorful detail to your garden. I am low maintenance, thrive in all soil types and only require a bit of spring clean up before I resume my growing season in the summer. One thing to note about me is that like my name suggests, insects and snails find me tasty, and may chew through my beautiful leaves. Misting my leaves with a bug repellent such as citronella or tea tree oil does a great job at keeping me safe from these garden pests! I am happiest, healthiest, and most beautiful when I am able to enjoy the cool shade and my soil is kept moist.

Care Guide

  • Watering: Water deeply once a week, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Increase frequency during hot and dry weather.
  • Maintenance: Remove spent flower stems to encourage new blooms.
  • Pruning: Trim back foliage to ground level in fall after the first frost to prepare for winter.
