Quick Overview

Hosta of the Year in 1997, Patriot has one of the brightest and widest white edges of any hosta. Combined with the deep green center, it is stunning. It has a rapid growth rate and thus idea for borders.

Product Description

The satiny, heart-shaped, dark green leaves have a 1" wide (with some variation) white margin with a little white streaking toward midrib. It is normal for the margin to get wider later in the summer. Some leaves are cupped. H. 'Patriot' has a diploid center and a tetraploid margin. As with all white-margined hostas it is difficult to grow without the white burning out.
