Hosta "Royal Standard" (Hosta ventricosa)

A new purchase today.
Went in for some perlite and came out with this as well for £2.50 (near end of season sale). It has five loaded stems just coming into bloom!

I guess the answer would be that they're there for the foliage - still don't get it though!
