InfoA sport of 'Wrinkles and Crinkles'.
Why CHANGE OF VENUE? This hosta goes through an annual change of expression. It starts out very close to the solid deep blue of 'Wrinkles and Crinkles' with lots of unruly rugosity. Then, as the season advances the outer inch of the leaf edges takes on a chartreuse tone. This begins in a subtle form and than becomes bolder and more dominant. Often toward the end of the season the outer band of color takes on an interesting near olive expression.
Same unruly, rugose expression as its parent. Nearly solid blue tone early, develops a wide chartreuse border that holds all season. Nice heavy substance.
