Description

(Mature Size: 36"T x 72"W) American Hosta Growers Hosta of the Year 2004,

  • What can we say about this legendary hosta! If you don't own a 'Sum and Substance' hosta then hit the add to cart button now!
  • Forms a giant mound of wavy chartreuse foliage that is corrugated and cups up and down.
  • At up to nine feet across at maturity, 'Sum and Substance' Hosta is the most popular gold-leafed giant hosta.  
  • We have seen this hosta be absolutely enormous but also 2 feet tall and 3 feet wide where it was fighting for moisture with tree roots.
  • Don't rob this hosta of its potential, plant in good fertile soil with good moisture retention. 
  • There is a picture on the hosta library with Van Wade standing behind his enormous clump. It is easily 45"T!
  • Give this hosta deep fertile soil and adequate moisture then step back and enjoy!
  • Can handle a lot of sun here in NH.
  • This ideal specimen plant displays lavender flowers in mid-summer.

Why Should I Grow It? You want a very large hosta that visitors will gawk at.
