Despite the flood of new introductions, Hosta 'Love Pat' is still hard to beat. This truly great hosta makes a 3' wide clump of round, intensely corrugated, deep blue foliage...good even in the upper South! This slow but easy-to-grow hosta is topped with nice stalks of white flowers that attract hummingbirds in early summer.
