Hosta Sum & Substance is a great plantain lily that has been awarded the coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit &40;AGM&41;. This bold & beautiful Hosta has huge, deeply corrugated deep green leaves which make a good backdrop for tall stems bearing pale lilac flowers which appear in July. This is the Hosta for a shady courtyard or border, where it makes a bold statement. It looks good with ferns & provides really effective ground cover in areas where many other plants prefer not to grow. Give it shade & moist conditions & it will reward you with lush foliage which looks as good in large pots as it does in the border. Sum & Substance will tolerate some sun, but give the foliage shade during the hottest part of the day & shelter it from cold winds.
