I picked this guy up at the fleamarket a while back I know its a Hosta of some kind and it takes low light. However my boyfriend left it outside and the sun nearly killed it all the leaves turned white and most of them fell off. I have been trying to bring it back and it seems to be working. It used to look like dreads from a rasta man but now it looks like that rasta man is balding lol Can you help me ID this plant?
