Hosta 'Bobcat'

'Bobcat' is one of those rare hostas; it brings wild beauty in small sizes with the perfect accent of the foliar to a shade garden. Some of its characteristic features include the small to medium-sized heart-shaped leaves of an astounding blue-green colour that give a cool and soothing tone to the garden. The leaves are quite thick and have a slight cupping at the centre, hence interesting texture and depth to the leaf. Later in spring to early summer, 'Bobcat' shoots up spikes of lavender flowers that provide a nice contrast to its heavy leaves and attract pollinators to the garden.
