This non-descript, green species hosta has light green, oval leaves composing the rather flat 18" wide clumps. However, in late summer or early fall, this hosta becomes the star of the garden with a stunning floral display. The green foliage on an established clump is topped with seemingly hundreds of magnificent, 18" flower scapes, each loaded with medium lavender flowers...spectacular!
