Hosta 'Big Red'

[M-L] Here's a big boy from Dan Wols that stands out in a hosta crowd! 'Big Red' is a cross of 'One Man's Treasure' x 'Sutter's Mill' with rounded, gently dome-shaped leaves with deeply imprinted veins and wavy margins. The foliage is thick, a bit glossy, and shows some light corrugation with maturity, while deep red petioles create a semi upright clump. Hosta 'Big Red' reaches about 20" tall, making a big, yellow mound that holds its color all season. Red scapes hold fertile lavender flowers just above the leaves in late summer.
