Hosta 'Patriot' Plants

Hosta 'Patriot' is a popular hosta with perfect variegated foliage and a tight ground hugging habit.  The ovate leaves have rich green centers and creamy white leaf margins.  The leaves are of good substance for withstanding the elements and will tolerate some sun exposure.  Tall scapes of tubular lavender flowers are borne in June/July.  A great groundcover for shade.
