InfoA unique sport of Blue Angel. Grey Ghost emerges near white in the spring, turns a bright butter yellow and then eventually blue in about six weeks. Grey Ghost is not the all-white form of Guardian Angel and it really holds it unique color longer than Guardian Angel does.
Bob Solberg brings us this exciting and unique new sport of H. 'Blue Angel', in the spring the leaves emerge a creamy-white with very little color, then turn a bright butter-yellow and eventually blue in about six weeks. H. 'Grey Ghost' is NOT the all-white form of H. 'Guardian Angel' as it holds the unique color longer. Makes a giant mound of large pointed leaves and is topped with near-white flowers in June. Excellent grower.
