I love large "vase shaped" hostas. I have Regal Splendor, Krossa Regal and montana Aureomarginata but am looking for more types / ideas. Suggestions??
Thank you.

I saw a leaf of 'Irish Luck' tonight at my local Hort. Society show. I was really impressed with the size and substance. Was tolkd it is vase shaped. https://www.google.com/search?...

Thanks. Another Question: Do you have a Hosta Liberty? I am interested in how tall and wide it is, how long you have had it.... things like that.

Here's my 'Liberty'. I've not measured it, but it's the largest plant in my city garden. The registration info on it says 39"w x 39"h and it's probably close. I've had it since 2009 but I started with one in a gallon-size pot. Photo taken a couple of days ago.

I like H. Tenyru for a nice "vase" shaped Hosta

@violaann
That is beautiful. Thanks!

@crawgarden
Thank you for the idea!

My favorite vase shaped hosta are
Super Sagae
Clifford's Forest Fire
Liberty
Atlantis
I have a collection of 216 hostas of which many are vase shaped hostas are addictive

Is the Patriot a vase-shaped hosta? (I could google it but what's the fun in that?)

I think Patriot is more of a mound form, but it's still a pretty one!

@mumlabo Your hostas are amazing!!! I have a heavily wooded front yard (valley-ish) and am hoping to create a nice hosta garden. As soon as DH confirms there are no critters or wasp/hornet nests.

As a novice, I started off with some Patriots in another area to see what happens when the Georgia heat hits in August/September. I'm hoping for good luck because it really brightens up an otherwise very plain area.

@Rose1656 Thanks so much! That is encouraging because I want it to get big!

@mumlabo Beautiful specimens you have there! I hope my Super Sagae grows up to look like yours!

I like Ivory Coast. Ivory Coast on the right below Blue Angel.

Liberty.

I'm enjoying Jewel of the Nile also.❤️




Neptune is also pretty to me.

Unfortunately, one of the two hostas didn't grow back. Did you have to wait until the next season for it to come back or is it possible the rabbits shocked the plant enough that it died? (The other one has been growing all along and it's doing okay considering it was eaten to the ground!)

Lots of great ideas! Thank you to everyone who replied.

I don't think you can beat Regal Splendor for a good sized (not HUGE) vase shaped clump hosta. I am also including a picture of my Liberty which is 4-5 years old. It measures 22-24" tall and about the same wide.

Both beautiful plants MartiDee, welcome to the site! I would help if you put a generalized or localized location in your profile!
