Hosta Plantaginea 2Gal

Latin Name: Hosta plantaginea

Common Name: Fragrant Plantain Lily / August Lily

Zones: 3–9

Height & Spread: 18–24 inches tall, spreading 24–36 inches wide

Descriptive Features: A classic species hosta prized above all for its intensely fragrant, pure white trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom in late summer — among the most fragrant of any hosta variety, often filling the evening garden with a sweet, lily-like scent. The foliage is glossy, light to medium green, and notably shiny compared to most hostas, with broad, ribbed, heart-shaped leaves. Unlike many hostas, it tolerates more sun, especially with adequate moisture, and flowers more reliably in brighter conditions. A wonderful choice near patios, walkways, or windows where its evening fragrance can be enjoyed. Reasonably deer-resistant compared to other hosta types
