Info | A large hosta with thick, frosted blue leaves with wavy margins, a twisted tip, and white undersides. Upright, vase-like habit. Monty Carlson brings us a beautiful cool frosted blue hosta that forms an elegant vase-shaped clump of thick leaves. The leaves have lots of ruffles and the tips are twisted...add white undersides and you have a pretty exciting plant. Lavender flowers complete the picture in early summer . |
