Hosta Stained Glass... if I remember correctly, this one has fairly thin 
leaves, and the slugs loved it... And it was not very vigorous for me... 
maybe there was some competition from surrounding plants, roots? Have it 
under a Sargent crab... maybe it wants more light, less competition? Have had 
it more than 5 yrs...
