This is a hosta to get excited about. Its foliage stands out amongst a crowd. The leaves are dark green with a wide curvy margin of crisp white, which creates a gorgeous contrast. It almost looks as if each leaf is hand painted. In August, it has a scape of lavender flowers. The Patriot Hosta is a very sophisticated plant and fits into any landscape!
Patriot Hosta forms a mound that slowly expands as the plant matures. The scape of lavender flowers in late summer attract bees and hummingbirds. The foliage height reaches 15-20 inches, while the scape height can reach up to 30 inches. This hosta has a spread of 30-40 inches. Use this lovely hosta for a focal point in your shady landscape or an edge plant. It works well when planted en masse and it is great for stabilizing slopes.
Patriot Hosta Care
Plant the Patriot Hosta in part shade to shade. It does it’s best in moist soil that is well drained. Once established it can tolerate some drought. This plant is adaptable and can thrive in all soil types with varying pH levels. Fertilizer should be applied lightly and in early spring. Remove flowering spikes after the flowering season has finished. Cut back foliage at the end of the season to deter slugs. Remove dead foliage as needed.
Patriot Hosta Spacing
When planting your Patriot Hosta, be sure to space plants 18 - 24 inches apart, center on center. When planting in proximity to other plants, correct spacing allows your new plant room to grow and develop a strong root system.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
