Hosta 'Gunsmoke' is one of the top new hosta introductions of the millennium! This amazing Roy Herold hybrid (H. 'Sagae' x H. 'Blue Piecrust') makes a giant, 65" wide clump of rounded, shiny, metallic-blue leaves (like H. 'Blue Umbrellas') with an amazing rippled margin. The vigorously growing large clumps are topped in late spring with 3' tall scapes of lavender flowers.
