This hosta has about the best fragrance of any that I’ve seen.  A medium sized hosta, it’s large white showy flowers produce a lily-like fragrance late in the day into the evening.  Hardy to zone 3, you can use this part-shade to shade hosta as a specimen plant, in a border or as a massed planting.

Companion plants such as heuchera, rudbeckia goldsturm, daylilies, turtlehead and astibles will all show off against the rich green leaves of this hosta.
