Abiqua Drinking Gourd Hosta is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its heavily textured and cupped blue-green foliage. The tall scapes of clear white bell-like flowers raise up above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils. Slug resistant.
