My neighbor gave me some of this hosta from her yard. This mature hosta is about 24-30" x 36-40". She says she's had these for years and years. The leaves are about 6"x10" or slightly larger. Thanks in advance for any insight. I'm a newbie. Just started my first hosta bed.

Comments (7)Definitely not Brunfelsia. Brunfelsia has alternate leaves and Pomegranate are opposite. Plus Pomegranate has angled twigs, different leaf shape and size and different veination pattern. These all support the first identification. I think the reason you are confused is due to that fact that juvenile plants have slightly different leaf morphology (larger leaves) than mature specimens (as the one you provide).....See MoreNeed Help ID'ing

Comments (25)Beth, I went through Don R. Fragrant list and looked at a couple, like Sweetness for example...but am not familiar enough with a lot on the list to zero in on particulars that may fit the bill. If you have the time and inclination, you could go through one by one, narrowing the field by eliminating obvious references to names like "blue" or "gold" etc. Chances are you might find it. :-)...See Morezkathy z7a NC
