Hosta 'Wrinkle in Time' is a smaller counterpart to the wildly popular, super ruffled Hosta 'Wheee!'. Hosta 'Wrinkle of Time' was discovered as a similar sport, but from Hosta 'Pilgrim'.
'Pilgrim' is a classic small hosta with surprisingly few progeny. This sport adds a little zing to its parent, with a large wave in each leaf. Hosta 'Wrinkle in Time' PPAF (Walters Gardens, Inc.) features green leaves with yellow margins that fade to creamy-white by summer. An excellent grower that will handle some sun. Hosta 'Wrinkle in Time' will grow into a dense mound about 9" tall and 29" across that blooms in mid summer with lavender flowers.
The leaves are edged in a creamy yellow border that's so wavy, it comes with a motion sickness warning. We recommend the addition of 2 Dramamine tablets in each planting hole to prevent future dizziness.
