It's far from flashy, but flash doesn't always make a good hosta. This vigorously growing 20" wide clump is composed of 2" diameter, thick, round, blue-green corrugated heavily cupped leaves, almost spoon shaped. The tight growing clumps are topped in midsummer with 18" scapes of light lavender flowers...very textural!
