A lovely Hosta with huge leaves, each delicately margined with a thin gold edge. The leaved gradually pale as the season progresses. Its main claim to fame is its huge size, up to 120 cm (4') in height. Prefers sun or semi shade. LIlac flowers which appear in the summer are an added bonus. Certainly one for the collectors.
