Hosta 'Liberty' is a large, variegated hosta forming an upright mound of thick, broadly heart-shaped, blue-green leaves, 12 in. long (30cm), widely and irregularly margined golden-yellow, gradually maturing to ivory. Funnel-shaped lavender blooms appear in early to midsummer, rising on scapes 40 in. long (100 cm), but the primary contribution of this hosta is its lovely foliage. Slow to establish, this clump-forming perennial is slug resistant and makes an impressive specimen in the shady border.
