With its pale lavender flowers that grow on tall stems amongst dark green, heart-shaped leaves, the Hosta “Minuteman” is an excellent choice for gardens. Only growing between 18-24 inches in height, this plant is perfect for ground cover or containers that are in partially or fully shaded areas. During the summer months, it attracts a multitude of pollinators with its bold appearance. With its white-rimmed leaves providing a sharp contrast, it’s no wonder the Hosta “Minuteman” has been awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit for its amazing qualities.
