Info | This is a hosta you will pick out of the garden from afar...beautifully shaped light green leaves ripple and twist as they reach up and outward making a flat spreading mound. The purplish-red petioles are easily seen as the leaves dance atop them. Topped with exquisite star-shaped lavender flowers. Light green leaves are heavily rippled and twisted (shimmied and shook)and held unusually horizontally creating a flat-like mound. |
