| Info | =rectifolia 'Fuji Botan'. =montana 'Fujibotan'. H. montana 'Fujibotan' is a very rare selection of H. montana that was discovered by Kenji Watanabe of Japan's Gotemba Nursery on the slopes of Mount Fuji. Often selling in Japan for more than a good used car, we are making you a deal you can't refuse. The highlight of the small 2' wide green leaf clump is the dramatic fully double lavender flowers... a truly exquisite sight when it flowers in late summer. Personally, this looks nothing like a Hosta montana, and I strongly suspect that it is indeed another species. |
