Info24" tall. Part Sun to Light Shade.
This Paul Aden introduction is one of the largest of the "piecrust edge" hostas.
Each of the large dusty green deeply veined leaves arches out and downward.
The heavily piecrusted leaf edges make this 4' wide clump a truly spectacular addition to the garden.
In early summer, the clumps are topped with 3' tall scapes of light lavender flowers.
Larger than most hostas we've grown with piecrust edging, the arching, medium green leaves form a clump to 4' wide.
Very impressive in a mature clump. Pale lavender flowers.
Large green leaves exhibit prominent veins and have a piecrust edge.
This plant will grow into a very large clump and have lavender flowers midseason.
