Info | This hosta rapidly produces a medium sized mound of stiff satiny green leaves that are held upright on dusty purple petioles. It maintains its distinctive appearance throughout the season until the first hard frost. Named after the Greek wine this seedling of H. 'Devon Mist' is topped with light lavender flowers borne on scapes that are often branched. |
