Like a larger 'Blue Mouse Ears', Hosta 'Silver Bullet' (Plantain Lily) is a small perennial forming a densely packed mound of horizontal, very thick, nearly round, rich blue leaves. Racemes of white flowers are held just above the foliage in midsummer. The thick foliage provides great slug resistance. The compact size and moderate growth rate of this blue hosta make it an excellent subject for containers and small gardens.
