Hosta plantaginea grandiflora aka Hosta plantaginea var. japonica, is an erect, large, vigorously growing hosta to 26″ tall and 46″ in diameter featuring large (11″ x 8″), flat, heart-shaped, light green leaves and racemes of bell-shaped, highly fragrant, white flowers on scapes up to 60″. A dependable and versatile perennial requiring little care. Grown primarily for its beautiful foliage which provides color, contrast and texture to the landscape. Dense foliage crowds out garden weeds.
Although slugs and snails can be serious problems, and leaf spot and crown rot lesser problems, hostas are otherwise virtually disease and pest-free, and are ideal, low-maintenance garden perennials. A mainstay of the shade garden. This large hosta may be best utilized as a specimen or mass planting in shady locations in the woodland garden, perennial border or naturalized area.

A Northern Sunset Perennial, it prefers rich, well-drained to moist soil in part shade to part sun.
