Hosta 'Great Expectations' – Plantain Lily
A slow-growing, slug-resistant hosta with truly spectacular foliage — large, oval, puckered leaves with a golden yellow to creamy-white center surrounded by wide, irregular blue-green margins. Pale lavender to white bell-shaped blooms appear in summer on 24–34" flower stalks, attracting butterflies and hummingbirds. Deer and drought tolerant, it makes a bold statement as a ground cover, container specimen, or border focal point in shaded gardens.
