'Floradora' hosta (Hosta 'Floradora') is a perennial for shade gardens, borders, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average moisture. Fragrant lavender flowers open from early to late summer and attract bees and hummingbirds. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.
