Surely, everyone needs a "guardian angel." Discovered at Mobjack Nursery, this hot new sport of H. 'Blue Angel' grows like its parent, except when it emerges in early spring, the center of each leaf is bright, creamy white. For the spring garden, this beauty will put all other hostas to shame! After spring, the center color fades to leave a simply stunning, large blue hosta to 3-4'+ wide. In late spring, the clumps are topped with near-white flowers.
