Hosta Tiny Tears 1 year 42 weeks ago

Hosta
Tiny Tears is #4 on the best mini-Hosta list for 2010 according to the American Hosta Society. This is plant is very small and has a groundcover type appearance. It’s a very attractive plant but to me doesn’t really look like a Hosta should. It’s not a bad thing to be unique though and its rating proves that.

Tiny Tears is a hybrid of Hosta venusta which is the #6 of the top 10 best mini Hostas for 2010. Tiny Tears is the parent of the 9th rated mini which is Hosta Cookie Crumbs.
