Hosta ‘One Man’s Treasure’
A very beautiful hosta with red petioles.
Medium mound size at maturity.
Hosta ‘One Man's Treasure’ has very shiny dark green leaves that are slightly rippled.
The outstanding characteristic of this hosta is the reddish-purple dots that are evident on the tops and bottoms of the petioles.
Good slug resistance.
One Hosta not to be without in any garden.
