This Grandprize hosta from White Flower Farm sucked me in with its pretty lavender flowers, despite the fact that we have lots of deer on the property (I use a spray repellent). Of course, the other thing I liked about it was that it had plenty of offshoots so I was able to divide it into eight smaller and three larger plants.
These are the divisions four days after they were split. Kept in the shade and well-watered they all look to be doing fine. I had to cut off the flower stalks, so the plants would concentrate on root growth, but I'll be able to enjoy the flowers next year.
