‘Big Daddy’ hosta is one of my favorite big hostas, mostly because it’s big, it’s blue and it has very interested leaves that are a bit dimpled.
Big Daddy hosta gets about 24″ tall and 36″ wide. It’s hardy in zones 3 through 9, the flowers are blends of white with a tinge of color, the foliage is blue. Great plant for any perennial garden.
Compare Big Daddy Hosta to Blue Angel Hosta and Humpback Whale Hosta.
Can you legally propagate Big Daddy Hosta?
As far as I can see this plant is not patented and the name is not a registered trademark. That’s huge! That means that you can dig and divide them and sell them to your hearts content?
Do I do that? No. I simply buy small plugs for about $2.00 or $2.50 each and grow them on from there. It’s way easier, a lot less work! And I don’t have to dig up my prized plants! Most of our members do as I do and simply buy perennial plugs. Some of the plugs that I buy are less than $1.00 each!
