Walters Gardens' Hosta 'American Hero' to Benefit GreenCare for Troops

Walters Gardens, Inc. has stepped up to support GreenCare for Troops by agreeing to donate 25 cents for every Hosta 'American Hero' sold to the worthy cause.

Walters Gardens, based in Zeeland, Mich., is the largest wholesale grower of bare-root perennials in the United States. The wholesaler offers more than 1,000 perennials and adds about 100 each year to its collection, one of which this year was the Hosta 'American Hero.'

The hosta is tough and durable, much like the soldiers it honors. It displays strong, bold variegation all season long. Its leaves have wide, dark-green margins and a creamy white center speckled with green. The thick leaves form a very dense clump, and as the plant matures they become somewhat twisted. Lavender flowers top the clump in midsummer.
