Lakeside Black Mama

Hosta "Lakeside Black Mama" review

Produces dark leaved seedlings. Pod parent of Mary's dark seedling line. This is the wonderful plant that has been used in the development of many of the dark Lakeside varieties. It is vigorous and produces a lot of large seeds. On an average it has produced seedlings that are about 90% very dark. It also usually produces a few each year that have white streaks.
