Default Large Hosta Suggestions


Greetings all from zone 7 - (6 weeks till spring) - Maryland

A question regarding hosta's. 'She who must be obeyed' mentioned that she's
tired of the green and cream vaiaged hosta's that were adorning the walkway
for the past 10 years...(btw, I planted those myself, fed them, divided them
and developed my green thumb with them... there's a little proudness over here).

So, there are several spots in the landscape where a very large specimen Hosta would
live nicely. Large meaning 3 foot tall, by about 6' around..... I can't remember
the name of the Blue Hosta's that grow that large, but are there other suggestions ??

Where would be a good place to purchase these plants Mail order works for me,
as none of the local Big Boxes or Garden centers have much of a selection, except
for the usual plants....

It's 6 weeks till spring.....I need to get out and do something for the garden.

Your thoughts and suggestions are appreciated...

Thanks !!

Peter
