Hosta 'When I Dream' is a long-awaited Hans Hansen/Walters Gardens hybrid of Hosta 'Empress Wu' and Hosta 'Queen of the Seas'. The result is a 28" tall x 5' wide, stunning clump of corrugated blue-green, ripple-edged foliage, each leaf highlighted by a wide central creamy center and an irregular band of chartreuse between it and the edge color. The intensity of the leaf color increases as the leaves age. In early summer, the clumps are topped with stalks of white flowers.
