How To Care
Hostas thrive in full to part shade and are adaptable to most soils and pH levels. Hostas go dormant in in late fall or winter, but come back year after year. Dead foliage may be removed any time after your plant goes dormant. Water your newly planted Hosta deeply a couple times per week to encourage the roots to grow properly. Once established hostas are drought tolerant however they will perform best with a moist soil. This Hosta is extremely low maintenance. Fertilize with our balanced, slow release fertilizer in spring for best growth.

At a mature size of 1-2 feet tall and wide the Patriot Hosta makes a great border or low perennial for the front of your foundation plants. Hostas look phenomenal in mass plantings. Plant Patriot Hostas in containers to enjoy them on your porch or covered patio or deck.
