Hosta ' Minuteman' well deserves its popularity as it quickly grows to form a dense clump of large, cup-shaped leaves, bottle green in colour, deeply veined, & splashed with margins of creamy-white. The attractive foliage contrasts well with the pretty, lilac flowers which are borne on tall stately stems throughout July. This Plantain Lily holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit & it is a good, reliable performer, providing ground cover in moist, shady borders. It looks great among woodland planting & at pond edges.

As it grows, this Hosta embarks on a true pilgrimage. The plantain lilys variegated foliage is quick to clump once planted. Whats more, the leaves golden margins change colour, fading to white as summer approaches. July sees another transformation as violet flowers emerge on stems of up to 20cm &40;8&34;&41;. The plant is a hardy perennial, so can be expected to die down during the winter months ready to begin its journey again the next spring. These qualities make the Hosta Pilgrim a characterful addition to shady borders. Alternatively, its compact nature makes it an equally excellent choice for moist containers.

Height: 20cm &40;8&34;&41;; Spread: 53cm &40;19&34;&41;. Culinary information: The best part to use is the hoston, the rolled up leaf as it emerges in the spring. Cooking depends on the size of the hostons, small ones can be fried for a few minutes, going well in stir fries. Thicker ones are better boiled & used as a vegetable.
