Info | Hosta 'Terpsichore' (Scheer NR) is a fast growing semi-upright yingeri hybrid with long, tapering and undulating shiny green leaves, bright red petioles extending halfway or more up the leaf undersides, and lasting well through the season. Will form a medium-large plant with heavy substance,(slugs don't bother this one) and fertile. This is the first of Alttara Scheer's hybrids ever offered, but it won't be the last! 'Terpsichore' closed at $450 in the 2004 American Hosta Society benefit auction. |
