H. 'Knockout' , an 1986 introduction of Paul Aden. It is a cross to two Aden
seedlings. Everyone is not interested it, just discussing a difficult hosta.
Not difficult to keep alive, just difficult to get it to increase. Believe
me, if Ran Lydell and Mary Chastain have difficulty growing this hosta into a
mature clump, no matter how good af a gardner you are, do not buy it. There
are many hostas that are much more beautiful and much easier to grow.
