'Lakeside Shore Master' hosta
'Lakeside Shore Master' hosta (Hosta 'Lakeside Shore Master')
Genus:
Hosta
With hefty, chartreuse-flared leaves, ‘Lakeside Shore Master’ hosta commands attention. Performing best in shade, it will tolerate some sun in our cool New England climate. Please don’t let the name fool you, however, into giving it a soggy spot; wet feet turn hostas into mush. This cultivar also sports thick leaves, which are fairly slug resistant.
