will find this splendid new hosta named in her honor. This is a plant with
lovely variegated foliage and wonderful, large and fragrant white 3 inch tubular
flowers on 2 foot scapes in late summer. A hybrid of H. plantaginea, the August
Lily hosta, it combines better vigor with broadly ovate blue-green leaves

*FRIED GREEN TOMATOES $6.95 qt Zones 3 - 9
This 'pumped up' hosta reminds me of the hosta classic 'Royal Standard' on
steroids. Bigger, more substantial green leaves have a powdery sheen on a
plant growing to 5 feet wide. The buds and flowers are large, pale lavender
and spring open into white trumpets
.thick with perfume for you, and
nectar for hungry hummingbirds. Another great plant with H. plantaginea heritage.

inches across.

A very popular hosta with H. plantaginea parentage. The gold centered, green
margined leaves are large and intensify in color during the growing season.

Hummers love it. For the best flower production, give this beauty several
hours of sun a day.

*OLD FAITHFUL $24.95 2-qt Zones 3 - 9
This is a wonderful hybrid of the Old August Lily hosta, H. plantaginea, bringing
with it a moderate sun tolerance and large and wonderful fragrant white flowers

purple petioles that merge into the large, deep green, and corrugated leaves.
A stunning combination of foliage and flowers on vigorous clumps.

This is one of the loveliest hostas I have ever grown. The sun tolerant leaves
are a bright green, and highly glossed, forming lush mounds up to three feet

the garden with extravagant perfume. This is one of the most heat tolerant
of hosta, great for southern climates.
