Hosta 'Potomac Pride' is our 1996 release that was selected as the Convention Plant for the 1995 American Hosta Society convention in Washington, DC. This Hosta 'Blue Umbrellas' x H. yingeri 'Treasure Island' cross makes a 4' wide clump, sporting large, shiny, black-green leaves and small, spidery, H. yingeri-like flowers in early summer...a vigorous grower and one you will recognize from all the others.
