'Invincible' has been in my garden since autumn 2005. It's a medium-large plant with lovely shiny leaves. It was registered by Paul Aden in 1986 but most of his registrations are now being questioned as many were fraudulent; so true origin is unknown. While this is a lovely green plant, the slugs love it too and by the time it blooms late in the season, the leaves are always lacework. Last autumn, I decided that my city garden was too small and the real estate too valuable to let this plant take up much space and I divided it and sold off the divisions with the proceeds going to my local hort. society. Please feel free to post your pictures of this hosta.
