Hosta 'Big Daddy' is an impressive perennial prized for its robust, dramatic presence in the garden. This clump-forming habit plant features substantial blue-green, puckered leaves that mature to a striking blue-gray, providing excellent textural contrast in shaded areas. Recommended for USDA hardiness zones 3 through 8, it thrives in cool to moderate summer temperatures. 'Big Daddy' enjoys partial to full shade and reaches a mature height of approximately 24 inches, with a spread of up to 36 inches. It is moderately deer-resistant, making it a reliable choice for gardens prone to wildlife visits. During the summer, pale lavender flowers rise elegantly above the foliage, adding a subtle splash of color and attracting pollinators. This Hosta is perfect for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and as a focal point in shade gardens.
