This big-leafed hosta makes an impressive statement in shade gardens. Its blue-green, heart-shaped leaves reach 10-20 in. across!

This shade perennial is an excellent choice as a foundation planting, focal point or ground cover in shade or woodland gardens. In the summer, pale lavender, trumpet-shaped flowers open above the foliage. Hostas, grown primarily for their foliage, are a low-maintenance way to add color to shaded areas.
