This small vigorous grower is a true breeding breakthrough...a nice blue hosta with lightly fragrant flowers, light blue on sturdy 18" scapes. Can you tell we're excited? Thanks to the summer growth habit of its parent, H. plantaginea, this 36" wide clump of smooth textured powdery blue leaves keeps sending up new leaves all summer. This hosta is destined to be one of the great ones!
