Info | If you are looking for a specimen plant that is both unique and lovely--one that stands out from the crowd--we offer 'Extrovert' for your consideration. Yes, this is a green hosta, but not just "another" green hosta. This one is distinctive. Sizewise, our oldest clump is about 4' across, forming a distinct, rounded mound about 22" high. The parentage alone tells you that this will be a hosta with generous dimples and puckering. Admittedly, plenty of green hostas match this description so far, BUT this one is unique in that the beautifully dimpled leaves are convex in nature, as though you pulled the edges down and pushed the centers up. The color of the very rounded, heavy substanced leaves is difficult to describe--rather a steely-green hue with a satiny finish. Both the individual leaves and the clump as a whole are distinctive and most pleasing. Garden visitors have always commented on 'Extrovert' as it does stand out from the crowd. A mature clump is individualistic and has true impact. Even a young plant has good eye appeal. We grow about 600 varieties of hostas here and there is really nothing that we have found to compare with it. As a parent, this one is producing offspring with very intense puckering and the same "extroverted" effect. |
