This new introduction from Minnesota's master hosta breeder Don Dean has drawn rave reviews in our hosta trials. The seemingly flat, perfectly formed, 30" wide clumps are composed of pebbled blue foliage surrounded by a carefully drawn creamy border. For us, the blue color holds longer than almost any other hostas we grow. In midsummer, the clumps are topped with 15" spikes of near-white flowers. This is a real winner!
