Info | A beautiful plant with large ruffled edged leaves; lavender flowers. Large gold heart shaped leaves (12"x9") with a ruffled edge make this hosta an interesting addition to the garden. Leaves quickly overlap when several are planted together. Mid-summer sun fades gold to pale green for continued interest. Sun tolerant. 18"x28". Blooms lavender. Shade to 3/4 sun. Growth average. Rather rare and unusual. Leaves are huge with ruffled edges, blue-green in color. |
