Details
Striking selection of H. kikutii was imported into the U.S. from Japan by Hideko Gowen, one of Minnesota's hosta gurus. It features frosty blue, spear-like leaves with yellow streaks. The undersides of the leaves have a metallic silver coloration. A nice, smaller selection suitable for the front of the border. Near white flowers open on the nearly horizontal stems in early summer. A collector's dream.
