About the Hosta -
Patriot :
The Hosta ‘Patriot’, Hosta fortunei, has
heart-shaped, glossy medium green leaves with a
large white margin, making this variety very
striking. The Hosta flowers bloom from July to
August, however, Hosta’s are not known only for
their flowers. With a plant height of 22” and a
spread of 36-48”, Hosta’s provide bright color in
shade with wonderful foliage.
Hosta ‘Patriot’ needs to be planted in a full
shade area in any moist, well-drained area. Hosta
‘Patriot’ was the American Hosta Growers’ Hosta of
the Year in 1997, and one can see why. This low care
perennial is ideal for shady positions, tubs and
patio pots, and one of the most popular for
landscape uses. A great choice for any beginner
gardener.
