Hosta 'Victory' is the largest variegated hosta ever introduced. This amazing specimen was discovered by hostaphile Mark Zilis as a sport of Hosta 'Elatior'. Hosta 'Victory' makes a giant 3' tall x 7' wide clump of large green leaves edged with a wide border of creamy white. In early summer, the clumps are topped with equally giant 7' tall flower spikes. A mature clump is truly a sight to behold. No wonder Hosta 'Victory' was voted the 2015 Hosta of the Year!
