Hosta Victory

A voluminous bicolour shrub with beautiful foliage, this variety is highly prized by gardeners. Its presence will liven up any bed and add a tropical touch to the plant composition.

Looks and scent
The Victoria hosta looks like a herbaceous bouquet of large decorative leaves. They show their leaf structure very well and are very pretty to look at. The leaves are voluminous, fleshy, heart-shaped and set on stout petioles. They are coloured a lush green with a yellow-cream stripe around the edge. In the autumn the stripe turns almost white. The perennial is 75 cm or taller, depending on the nitrogen content of the soil. The shrub is 120 cm wide.

In summer tall arrows appear above the grassy cap of the hosta, flanked by bell-shaped flowers. Their petals are coloured white. The seedling may not produce flower arrows in the year of planting, but from the age of three the number of arrows per plant varies from 7 to 15.

The Victory variety is known for its excellent resistance to sub-zero temperatures and will therefore not be afraid of the harshest winters.

It has a frost resistance of -20˚C.
