Planted around the base of a large oak tree with consistent water. It's come back for three years now, but is the first of my 8 hostas to disappear every year. It's clearly a favorite of rabbits, as it is the only hosta of its kind in a ring of mostly blue angels. I really like the way it looks, but it never seems to get bigger and only appears for a short couple of months before getting devoured.
