Info | ='Holy Molé' (registration). Holy Mole! This dazzling sport of Hosta 'Guacamole' is sure to get the plant world excited. H. 'Holy Mole' boasts an extremely wide 2" border of black-green surrounding the contrasting chartreuse center pattern. The large thick rubbery dome-shaped leaves make us think this is probably a tetraploid. In late summer, the robust 3.5' wide clump will be topped with 30" tall spikes of large and very fragrant near-white flowers. This is one of the most vigorous hostas that we grow and one that is a must for any hosta garden! |
