Info | 8" tall. Light Shade to Shade. Dense, compact 6" tall mound of round blue green leaves. Very heavy texture, crinkled and slightly cupped. White flowers. Sterile. A dwarf, with dark green leaf, light stippling in veining. This is highly regarded as one of the best (and only) tiny leaf blue hostas. It could best be described as a miniature H. 'Blue Cadet'. The tiny rounded leaves make a perfect miniature mound to 8" wide. In early summer the pale lavender flowers top the plant to 18". One of the best dwarf hostas, round blue-green leaves with white flowers. One of, if not the smallest of blue hostas, with small rounded leaves about 2½" wide at maturity. Pale lavender flowers. Our photo is not as clear as we would like, but it does indicate the size of the plant. Small plant with blue-green leaves, heavy texture. Pale lavendar flowers in June and July. Great rock garden plant. A very small blue-green which forms a dense, compact mound. Attractive slight cupping to the leaves. Good substance on this Savory Shield Award winner. Lavender flowers. |
