Info | It is a frosty green sport of H. 'Sand Pebbles'. This is an all green plant but this is a rare instance where I think the green sport is better than the variegated original! Leaves are green covered with an unusual grey-green bloom giving a different color seldom found in the hosta garden....a soft misty green like you would see on a foggy spring morning giving it the appearance of, well, a MISTY DAWN. |
