Your 'Nana' is a nice bloomer, Jo Ann!

About how big are its leaves? They look pretty dainty in the picture.

Nanna is one of the smallest hostas.I have all my smalls in containers so I dont weed them out of the garden. The yellow bird mid a life size cannery if that helps.

I did a quick search and found where it says that it's only an inch or two tall without the bloom stalks, and about four inches in bloom! Tiny!

I didn't find it in our DB, so I added it. The entry will still need additional information, but it's a start. Smiling

I might try to get one or two of these, I think they're cute!

Thanks, Jo Ann. Thumbs up

There are times when I am so bored I just make up a project.
I believe Hallsons has hosta sizes by group.I have tried to find Nana on the web and its just not around.
Cherish was a bonus from Hallsons.

PS Nana is also a fast spreader.
I found it on our database spelled Nanna.

Ah! Okay.

Maybe my entry will be declined.

I think I'd really like a fast-spreading, itty-bitty hosta. I can see definite possibilities there! Hurray!

Jo Ann, I have Cherish also and I love it. I do like Nana too. Another small that I like is Twist of lime. It blooms good also.

I wish I had enough of the tiny hosta to go around the base of upright hosta. They are cute but can get lost with the big guys. I toured one garden and she had all her minis in a large, upright tublike container.
