InfoPP32068.
Forms a majestic clump with beautiful white centered leaves and wide green margins. Very attractive large lavender flowers top the clump on tall, straight flower stems.
It originated from a cross of a streaked Hosta 'American Sweetheart' and the giant Hosta nigrescens 'Elatior'.
The result is a stunning, large-growing hosta to 19" tall x 55" wide.
The glossy-green, thick-substanced leaves are each decorated with a prominent wide white central pattern.
The clumps are topped with 5' tall spikes of white flowers in mid-summer.
