Info | 'Uberageous' ('Outrageous' x 'Sea Blue Monster') is from two great hybridizer's lines, Benedict and Seaver, it forms a magnificent clump near 30" tall and 4'+ wide with near white blooms in mid-season. Very large blue rounded leaves are generously streaked with cream and gold; with 15+ deep vein pairs and average 8"x10". 'Uberageous' is the largest streaked breeder hosta I have worked with. It is a prolific seed producer with a high proportion of variegated seedlings and good strong growers. A high seed germination rate rounds out this breeder as the best in my garden. And 'Uberageous' makes a stunning clump itself. |
