Huge Hosta...

This is my favorite Hosta that I have. It just keeps getting bigger each year..I wish I knew what it's name is. My grandaughter calls it "biggin" because it is a big one!!

Looks like Paul's Glory. It's a large. Yours looks like an excellent specimen. However, it's far from the largest Hosta available.

This is Empress Wu. The last I heard the original clump was 54 inches high.

Beautiful! Leaves are just like my Paul's Glory but I have years to go before I can hope for such a stunner!

Susie, I can see why it would be a favorite. It is a biggin' and well grown. 'Paul's Glory' is one of my favorites also.

Thanks for showing it.
