Hosta 'Purple Heart' is a splendid hybrid from our friends at Terra Nova Nurseries. We've grown Hosta 'Purple Heart' since 2009, and in that time, it's formed an elegant 15" tall x 30" wide clump of thick, rich green, heart-shaped leaves. The leaves are held at the end of black-purple petioles, with the color often running into the leaf fold. Starting for us in mid-June, the clumps are topped with black scapes, ending in dark purple flowers that just top the foliage. Despite not being variegated, Hosta 'Purple Heart' is one of a short list of hostas that we wouldn't be without in our shade garden.
