Details

A beautiful and unique mini hosta. The leaves are long, slightly twisted, folded, intensely wavy and moderately cupped. The clump matures to only 1' wide. The long, dark green leaves have a stunning creamy center and the margin is slightly rippled. The leaves are also slightly shiny above and underneath. Similar in shape and size to the popular H. 'Stiletto.' Lavender flowers in early summer. Great for the front of your garden, in troughs, or along paths.
