Spectacular! It's hard to use too many adjectives when describing this amazing new creation from Hans Hansen's work at Walters Gardens. Each giant 30" tall x 6.5' wide clump of Hosta 'Wind beneath My Wings' is composed of long, arching, deeply-veined, heavily-rippled, powder blue leaves....an exceptional specimen plant. The 3.5' tall stalks of lavender flowers top the clump in summer. This hybrid of Hosta 'Neptune' and 'Queen of the Seas' is exactly what you'd expect from such great parents.
