Hosta Liberty

Liberty Hosta

Hosta ‘Liberty’ — a large perennial hosta with a bold, upright-mounded form, prized for its thick blue-green leaves bordered by wide golden-yellow margins that mature to creamy white. The broad, heart-shaped foliage has excellent substance, deep veining, and strong contrast, creating a dramatic specimen in shade gardens. Pale lavender flowers rise above the foliage in midsummer and attract hummingbirds.
