Info | ='Blue Cascades'. Out of the hybridizing program of Monty and Julie Carlson comes H. 'Blue Cascade'. Intense, blue-green, heavily rippled leaves, and outward-twisting leaf tips beckon hosta lovers to take a closer look. The pleasure of viewing its rich color and striking form washes over admirers like a refreshing waterfall. In August, the clump sends up scapes loaded with lavender flowers. |
