HOSTA
Common Name: Plantain Lily
Family: Liliaceae



Hostas are one of my favourite foliage plants. They are hardy herbaceous perennials, and many of them have lovely flowers of white or shades of lavender. The foliage can be very small, or exceedingly large, depending on the variety. These Hostas below are good white variegated ones with medium-sized leaves, which I grow in my garden.
