Comment |
SMALL HOSTA ~ The lance-shaped leaves are
sharply pointed, deeply rippled and dark green with a satiny
sheen. - The plant is stoloniferous and increases rapidly to
form a mound about 12 to 15 inches wide. |

Care |
Seed heads may be removed to improve
appearance. However, the seeds do provide food for birds and
may be left. Cut foliage to ground after killing frost or in
the early spring.
