This qualifies as the BEST of the oldies-but-goodies. This easy-to-grow hosta makes a wonderful specimen with dark green, heart-shaped leaves, surrounded by an extremely wide, creamy edge that emerges gold in early spring. In late summer, the 40" wide clump is topped with 26" stems with dark lavender and white striped, bell-like flowers!
