Two guesses about the size of Hosta 'Gigantosaurus', and the first guess doesn't count. This 2024 Hans Hansen/Walters Gardens release forms a yuuu....ge 30" tall x 6' wide clump of corrugated blue leaves, each with a wide creamy border. This is the largest variegated hosta we've ever encountered. The clumps are topped in late spring with 30" tall spikes of light lavender flowers. The parents of this gem are Hosta 'Empress Wu' and 'Blueberry Muffin'.
