Info | ='Ready Eddy'. Sibling to 'One Man's Treasure' and 'Grandaddy Redlegs'. This Benedict hosta boasting H. longipes genes brings good substance, purple-red petioles, and powdery blue-green foliage to the planning table. The undulating waves along the length of the leaves and the gently curving tips send out good signals to all who sail by. This rare beauty will only be on radar for a short time. |
