Hosta 'Church Mouse' is a 2012 introduction from our friends at Walters Gardens...another of the many Hosta 'Blue Mouse Ears' sports that keep showing up at an amazing rate. Hosta 'Church Mouse' makes a compact rosette of glaucous green leaves, each bordered by a very ruffled edge of lighter green. The 8" tall x 14" wide clumps are topped with short 8" tall flower scapes in midsummer. We think you'll really like this miniature oddity.
