| Author's Notes | This Hosta has been growing in my garden for about 3-4 years (as of 2015). At first I was disappointed. The plants were slow growing and lack substance. But how 2 of the 3 (the third is in a heavier shaded spot) are growing strong (2015) and had good red color. Still going strong in 2019. |
