White Flower Farm Hosta Krossa Regal
Best architectural perennial for gardeners seeking low-maintenance, shade-loving structural interest.
Most hostas sprawl, but this variety stands tall with a sharp, architectural vase shape that anchors a shady border. It sacrifices the lush, ground-hugging spread of typical cultivars for a refined, upright silhouette that demands attention.
