Description
It's a pretty sure bet that with a name like 'Behemoth' this hosta is going to be a giant.
Thriving in full to dappled shade, this hardy herbaceous perennial grows as a mounding cluster of large and long gracefully arching leaves, each with a deeply lobed base and delicately rippled margin. The conspicuous foliage exhibits an unusual light green color and hosts tall stalks of tubular, pale lavender flowers in early to midsummer, attracting hummingbirds.
