Details

According to Walter's Nursery, 'Rhino Hide' has the thickest leaves measured on any hosta. This gives it more slug resistance. In addition, the blue leaves have a narrow yellow center and are deeply cupped. It all combines to make a truly unique hosta, definitely one of the most talked about new introductions.
